Hi Steve,
I contacted Rics R us about having some work done on my CS as it looked due for a re-fret.
They put me in touch with Bob Barry in Birmingham
who does their set ups and stuff.
I met up with Bob who is a really nice guy and knows his stuff and left the CS with him.
After checking it out he only needed to do a fret dress and when I picked her up it was like playing a better faster bass!
I can thorughly recommend Bob to sort out your 4003.
I am considering getting my V63 neck re-profiled by him too.
And thanks again to Shawn.
I promise to ring in the next few days by the way.
Oh Bob is on the net but I have to ring him for his email address as I forgot to get it when I picked my CS up.
Pete.
Too many basses is an oxymoron

Thanks for that Pete, it is nice to know there is a guy who can "sort" a Ric in the UK. I have dealt with Mike at Rics R Us and I found him to be really genuine and extremely helpful. I trust his recommendation 100%. I was also shocked to see that he has a couple of 4005's and a Lemmy in stock !!
