Hmm, I think the skunk stripe looks too wide...
OK, that's something that gets my attention... Now, if they'd done the outer binding in black, I'd be selling some equipment, trucks, etc. just to buy it... Hmm, wait a minute, I'm selling all that stuff anyway, maybe... Nah, I probably shouldn't...

Love that bass - well done RIC! The skunk stripe and headstock wings along with the black pickguard and checkerboard binding give it a bit of a 4002 vibe.

It's probably quite light too.... I suspect it would be a resonant tone monster!!

Yeah, you're right... That one is just
too gorgeous! Even my wife thinks I should get it...
I guess I'm just gonna have to fight Craig over this one...

Hey, that's an implication of a novel idea! RIC building their own fakers, to cash in on the apparently growing market for such things!

Look carefully, it has a bolt on neck and its the wrong scale length and if we could see inside all the routing would be all wrong..

I really like this one, though I'd swap the black plastic out.
