There is a 4003/S5 on sale at Sam Ash in Lombard, IL. A friend told me. Not sure of the condition or price. I might be going out there today to check it out.

Try this one. Not sure why the link didn't work.

Here is the site for custom ear plugs...

The site has changed a bit since I used them last so you might have to search a bit.

Actually yes. The stage is quiet and since we have 4 monitor sends, each of us can have a personal mix. Seems like we have only been using two mixes, though. The downside is when people come up to ask for a request or to make an announcement we can't hear them without removing the ear plugs. BTW, we ...

I once had a moron blow up an old Peavey bass amp. He was Rick Saucedo's (Elvis impersonator) bass player and came in there with a very hot active bass (I do not do active) and fried the amp in his first set. That bar had live music from 9:00 PM to 5:00 AM - two bands trading 1 hour sets. I was ...

Great jacket Ted!!!!!!!

4004 better than a 4003? That works for me....

BTW, I did contact Jeff and if I can find a new 4003 Jetglo somewhere I'll do the 425 conversion.

What do you think of a Warwick Dolphin? I tried one and love the sound.

My wife has decided to get me a bass for my birthday. I now exclusively play one of Jeff Rath's old 4003/s5. My question is whether to buy a new 4 string Ric or pick up a 5 stringer. I prefer 5 strings but a new 5 string Ric ain't gonna happen. What brands of 5 stringers do you guys like or should I ...

I used to mainly be a trombone player and have played with many very famous and infamous people. I consider some of them my friends. After a gig many years ago Bobby Shew (jazz trumpet - inventor of the Shew Horn) came up to me and said (jokingly, I hope?????) that a solo I played sucked. We both ...

Congrats.....can't wait to see these pics on eBay with that auction from China. What a beauty.

Kevin, you married your drummer's sister? Big mistake. One of my guitarists and I married two of the other guitarists sisters. So we have brothers-in-laws and a drummer. One the other hand, we probably will be playing together for a long, long time (2006 is the band's 25th anniversary).

Bassmith is a great program. I use it to mainly tweak what the pedals do on the floorboard. I have 2 PODxt Pros and a Bass PODxt Pro. They are fantastic live and perfect for recording. The xt versions blow the older version away. I still prefer the xt Pro version with the shortboard for live stuff.

It's a Thompson. I am tempted but it is pricey. They had some minor problems with it and had to send it in for repairs. The day I played it, Carl called the studio to see if everything was OK.
