Feel free to post under this topic the truly rare and beautiful 4001s you can find on the Web and elsewhere - I will!

These people are reported to be notorious for overrating the condition of instruments and then charging a stiff restocking fee. Looks like that's not their only problem.

Ahhhhhh! You guys are nuts! If those Ric basses were in my possession I could trot 'em over to eBay and EASILY get $3,000 out of each one.

Sergio,

Seems like that Fireglo picture should have the caption, "I'm just waitin' on a friend!"

OK. Pardon my ignorance, but I've never seen one of these. What's the sticker on the back of the headstock?

Disregard the above URL to the Autumnglo Rick. Here's the correct one:

Ain't it a beauty?

Sure is. I wonder if a Montezuma Brown 4003 will look as nice.

$1295 with HSC for that 1980 4001 Autumnglo, not a bad deal.

Where are you, Paul? $1295 for a '80 4001 is way too much IMO.

Too bad this one is quite worn. Still a beauty, though.
