thanks for the info! Love this place....

Hello,

is the hardware on these instruments chrome or nickel plated?

Thanks

Wonderful! From what I see, you are the man for the job.

My email is [email protected]. Drop me a line when you have a moment and we'll go from there.

Thanks.

Dale, would you consider taking on another v63 refinishing job?

Hi Sean,

I tried emailing you directly, but not sure if it went through.
Who's doing your work? How slim are you going, and what color are you doing? Sorry for all the questions!

New question...

Has anyone slimmed down the neck on their bass?

Great! thanks for finding that link!

thanks again to everyone for all the info.
Sean, are you having your '00 V63 slimmed down? I was wondering about that myself if I picked up one that happened to have a fat neck.
While I'm at it, may I ask what you think a V63 should go for these days? I know there a lot of factors to take into ...

Hmmm.... me thinks I need to look into this further.
If anyone can remember where that neck discussion of the v63's is, please pass it along.

By the way, the Seagreen v63 pictures i've seen are what made me want one! That color on that bass is just gorgeous!

thanks for all the input!
How many years did they do the v63?

Also, (this may be blasphemous to some) if I ended up getting one of the later year models with the thicker neck, could the neck support a trimming to make it thinner?

Hello All,

I love rics, but most of the models I've played have had very large/fat necks and I like slender necks. How is the 4001v63?

Thanks for your time.

I might be mistaken, but I thought there was a "for sale" section in the forum. Has it gone away, or was I imagining the whole thing?

Specifically, I'm looking for a 4001 V63.... wishing.

please pardon my ignorance, but what is this 4003 DCM you are talking about? Looks like it's a 75th anniversary instrument right?
How many will be made? What color? Any left to order? Has the train left the station already?
Sorry if all this has been talked about previously in another forum.
