Nice figuring and birdseye on the back, but from those pics you can't tell how the front looks. Your V63 MG is better and awesome.

to me paying $2469 for a v63 bass seems obscene. For that price I would want 2 of them.

It just amazes me how the s models used to be the lower priced less desireable model and now people pay through the nose for them. For my money I'll take a 4003 any day. :?

You couldn't have waited until after I sold mine to say that! :lol:

Thanks, John. Unfortunately I have to sell her to pay for the last two additions. I was watching this one to get a feel for a price.

Let me know what you decide. I might be able to convince my better half I really need it. I, too, would need to move a bass of two to do it.

If I had one for sale I would try to get the best price for it as well ...

With my 2030 in the mix, 3 of my 4 Ric basses are actually dot inlay. I do have a '98 4003 as well...

John,

Kevin, I replied just now. I spent that night not getting to sleep until 4:30AM and woke up at 9:15 and couldn't get back to sleep. It is a most beautiful V63 bass with the figuring and birdseye and worth every penny you are asking. I would need to move 2 of my 4 Ricks to get it and would hate to let the Cheyenne go and that would have to be one of them. Having 6 basses and not actively playing anywhere but the practice room, I can't justify it. I really appreciate first chance at your V and wish you a quick sale. It is a beauty at a great price and someone here needs to get it today.

ARE YOU GUYS LISTENING?!?!!
