That color is so rad - almost reminiscent of a brighter Azureglo. 8)

I am normally not a blue finish fan, but that Cieloglo and Azureglo both win me over.

I notice these are double rod unlike the last few specials. There was speculation here and other places if RIC would be moving to single rods on the 4003 and 4003s as well. I'd love some official word.

I grew up with the double truss so I might be biased .... one thing I do know is those colors are killer! Great offering - Thanks Ben!

Maybe, maybe not. Officially.

One vote for keeping dual rods here.

I fear change.

Corkers!
Life, as with music, often requires one to let go of the melody and listen to the rhythm

Love both of those, if I didn't already have both colors in the standard 4003 would be ordering a Plumglo!

Two votes and I don't fear change but dislike it when it is not a change for the better.
