@Paul_C they all look like they're short of a string










no, they all have just the right number of strings.







Yamaha did make a 5 string version, but there were only 50 made and I never found one for sale (though I did look)

Someone at basschat has one. I think they're amazing, apparently it weighs a tonne though!

Nice bass.

that pic only shows 12, I got to 16 before I decided I was getting a bit carried away and sold them all.

Does anyone remember the late 60's expression "It was a gas", meaning (IIRC) a good time/plenty of fun?

T Rex - 'Life's A Gas'

EDIT Life's a gas was also the title of a T.Rex song

We can blame the Sex Pistols for ruining that phrase  )

I think the point might have been that, of all the basses in the pic, the only nice one is the Ric at the back!

ah, good point!
