DOH!!!!!   I thought you were a Rickenbacker fan hahaha..... that's Lemmy and a 4004 Rick


I said I was a fan of the basses, I didn't say I knew everyone who used them Wink.

Besides, I have heard little or no Motorhead and didn't know he played a ric.

Lemmy played with Hawkwind (on the albums "Doremi Fasol Latido", "Space Ritual", "Hall of the Mountain Grill" and "Warrior on the Edge of Time") before Motorhead were founded. In fact "Motorhead" is a Hawkwind song.


thanks Friede... I should have recognized that if he didn't recognize who Lemmy was.. in spite of all the hints that were in that pictureWink.. that he might not have known about Lemmy and Hawkwind.  Quite a character Lemmy is isn't he LOL

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

well too Thumbs Up
 
Just curious... Does that guitarist from Focus (I can't bother to remember dutch names.. sorry) play a Rick? It sounds like a rick to me... but sortof different... His sound is definitely unique, so I was just wondering what guitar he uses...


both bassists... Ruiter and Havermanns played Fenders... remember Greg Lake had a similar tone to Squire in that it was very treble jacked... but played a jazz bass.

Lemmy is a long time player and had his own signature bass from Rickenbacker.... check out Motorhead... great stuff....
