Is the pickup surround correct for that era?

Is this the one Mike Gutierrez posted a little while ago?

I was going to bid on it, while it was on Ebay.

Even at $12K, I was worried about ever re-selling it. It's not like the 4001s from the 60's or the 70's.

How big of a market is there for this one? Not to big.

It will be interesting to see if it sells.

I bet you it doesn't.

The HS surround is correct.

Okay guys, this is my 4005th posting, so Marc, send me that 4005 you bought me for my birthday, thanks!

What did you get for your 4002th post?

Isn't that the one the Kim Sisters used?

"Isn't that the one the Kim Sisters used?"

I was wondering that Jerry as there was mention of a photo of 'the young lady with her band'.

Just wondering if that's the picture of The Kim sisters in the Ric galleries.

This one wasn't owned by one of the Kim Sisters. The original owner's daughter sold it on ebay a few months back. She had photos of her mother playing it in a country band that she played in for a few years.

I always wanted one of these... but not at this price!

I'm still waiting for Ted to send me his 4002! Maybe Bob Scott can send me his instead.

Jeff, I was sincerly thinking of doing it but, since the
M-id
A-tlantic
R-ickenbacker
C-onfluence

is the day after my birthday, and those arriving the night before, I'm sure there will be drinks shared etc...you're just going to have to give it back.It's the thought that counts however.

If I were you, I'd be buddying up to Dave Pascoe as post 4080 approaches.
He's got a few to spare.

I was already thinking about the 4080th post!

Jeff,your at 4007 now thats not even a model so you lose, until you get to 5002 then i will get you a mandolin.

Marc, I was actually thinking of maybe using some of the extra 4080's as door prizes, on 11/5(M.A.R.C. Day).
