I didn't know either. Looks to be Bass Guitar Magazine:
http://www.bassguitarmagazine.com/

Also looks like we all should try and get one.

BGM has been granted "unprecedented access to the Ric archives . . . ". Swell. Maybe now that there is a precedent, I can get access, too. Anybody who has the article, who is the author, or is it attributed only to the magazine staff?

I'd like to know, too. I can't find it anywhere. I'd really like to read that article. Bass Player is the ONLY bass playing magazine around at all, it seems. (Meanwhile there are a zillion guitar mags.)

I ran into a brick wall here in Pennsylvania too. Nowhere to be found. Not Walden, not Borders. nowhere. Bummer! If someone finds some, will they please buy me one and make a few bucks on me in the process??!!!!!

Besides Bass Player and Bass Guitar Magazine, I also have been a longtime subscriber to Bassics magazine that Ron Garant publishes.
