That's the spirit, Jim. And you'll find that owning one Rickenbacker bass is never enough.

$900 for a new 4003!!!
Jim you'd better rush back to the store and bring home that Fireglo before it's gone.Hope your wife understands.

Merry 'Xmas indeed.

If I bought that other ric my wife would cut of my @#$$s. but the way this one sounds it might be worth one.

Jim,
Totally understood.
Take care and live well for your next chance to get another(Ric bass, not wife.......or if you can handle both...).
Don't forget to put the case under the 'Xmas tree to make yourself feel good.
