Great sounding bass, of course.

Dubious color though!!!

Pity

Sea Green was RIC's color of the year in 2000. Some orders may have been filled in early 2001 also.

is there a chart/list of all the 'color(s) of the year' avail. anywhere?

I believe one of my Sea Greens has a 2002 production date. Not really surprising considering RIC's production backlog, especially if it was ordered late in 2000.

I owned a seagreen 4001v63 , I believe it was early last year...it was for sale here in my own hometown....paid big $$$ and sold it for big $$$

It was too perfect to keep. Flawless.

...and NO , I won't reveal who owns it now!!

I put in an order for a SG 4003 about a week after the color was announced and still have it. I've been more into my 3000 lately though.
