Kept it quiet till I was sure it was no scam (came from the Orkney Islands) but my 1979 BC Rich TJ series Mockingbird turned up:

Double reverse Ps. Took me a while to figure what was different when I put it next to my Japanese one.

Holy Carp! That is the most beautiful BC Rich I ever saw! The knobs are Radio Shack, but I wouldn't change them, I have a set just like them on a pawn shop Gibson SG, and they lend a nice 70's provenance to the beast. Nice score. I'll be in my bunk...

Standard volume/tone/3 way switch. Then the middle knob and single micro switch are a boost circuit, no battery in it now, but might use ti to hit my valve amp with loads of gain for drive. The 3 in a row are phase and series/paralell (makes a lot of difference). The chickenhead is my favourite though, varitone type thing, passively changes the sound, not just a treble cut, but fiddles around with the sound somehow, its a bunch of capacitors on the inside, one settings makes your sound really punchy, which I really like for finger funk.

It's much more pathetic then most in here, but it's a start! my next buy will be a modulus 5 string.

Nothing wrong with that Bass. I'm a die hard Ibanez fan and have way too many SRs than I know what to do with. :)
Nice Bass!

Can you get the sound you want from it, Fluff? If you can, then it's a good bass. That's pretty much the standard we judge by around here. As far as OTDOY is concerned he has way too many of EVERYTHING :D

haha i didn't mean the bass was pathetic :)... but some people here have some amazing collections :) the SR505 is a great bass.. i'm happy with it for sure!
my overall gear is pathetic :(... just a pretty bass and some amps.. thats about it.. i'm working on it though i'll get more pics as soon as I get some more new gear down the road. It is my newest hobby.. this is my 2nd first bass. I've always wanted to play the bass, but it wasn't until this new years I finally dove in head first and am loving it so far. Had my first lessons last week. I learned more this week then my first attempt at bass some 8-10 years ago.

My Bassic rig
O'tay.....here goes.
this is what I play most days. The Fender P/J.....the (new) Ampeg drives the Epifani 210 cabinet. Its an older cab, predates the creation of Epifani's UL / PS series, its got the neodynium drivers and was rebuilt at the factory in Brooklyn according to the guy I got it from....
The Hartke is taking up space and will probably come home with me sometime soon to take up closet space as a backup amp.
the fender has had the p'ups replaced with DiMarzio Split P and Ultra Jazz,
control cavity sheilded; but still get some intermittant buzz.....she sounds sweet and has good action.

I tried posting but when you go to edit insert all you can do is add a URL there is no selection to add a pic? What am I missing here? I went over and over the options which are not available until I preview my post and cannot find a insert image function other than add URL?

it should pop up a little window and the first line is the image URL...

what kind of bass is that sir? I cant seem to make out the headstock logo.
p.s. that Mockingbird way up there is quite un-BASK-tacular, but its a nice bass just the same.
p.p.s Rim, what are those holes or whatever on your MM (or is it a Sterling) pickguard? is that spots to anchor your thumb?
p.p.s.s. rock.

I know but it's so light. The Shuttle 3.10t only weighs about 18 lbs. The 212 cabinet only weighs 62 lbs.
Put the Shuttle combo in your gigbag, sling that over your shoulder, pick up your bass in one hand and the 212 in the other.
Pretty nice and powerful for a little package. (That's what she said)

Shuttles
Better yet, get the 4.5 pound, 900-Watt Shuttle 9.0 and a couple of those Neox 212 cabs and you could shake up an entire club without breaking a sweat during load-in/load-out. The 9.0 has a topology designed to drive bigger cabs in addition to the extra horsepower.
