Did anyone else notice there appears to be a sticker or something next to the controls in the picture.

That's on all '06 4003's, Kris. It points out the VTS switch.

Very fine J.H. and all those at RIC! A classic finish, with a stylish commemorative appointment! Kudos. Very well done, IMO.

Very nicely done RIC! I can't wait to see some more photos, from all angles.
Life, as with music, often requires one to let go of the melody and listen to the rhythm

My guess is those at the 75th will have a proto to look at.

I think it had something to do with Pauls "Mink" bass. If you remember, alot of us called the color Cherry or Black Cherry.

Cool!!! A 330 would look great in that color.

"I wonder if it is available with a toaster? Hmmm..
I would have like to have seen it with a HS...."

Yeah, Tony, I kinda thought it would have both, given it is the 75th anniv. model. Not dissing it though. I'll get to see them Friday.

John:

I can't wait to see some better pictures.

I'm not dissing it either, I just would have thought, as you said, being a 75 Anniversary (with RIC being the inventor of the HS) it would have had the classic setup.

I hope to be able to get one too. Tomorrow will be a busy day!

Guitars? Isn't the BASS thread? Image LOL....
Sorry John, excuse my breach of etiquette.

But, the GUITARISTS do have a choice of THREE different models, while us lowly bass players, have only one to choose from. Image

Ok, ok......Image

I should have been more specific....

75th ANNIVERSARY choices are limited to ONE BASS while the guitarists have THREE choices...Image

No, I was saying we had many possibilities for Anniversary models! ;) Gotta have parity with those guitarists! :D

Do you think this will take the place of a 2007 COY?
