Well, not quite, but this seemed like a good idea for a pic last night:

Left to right:
'85 4003
'86 Shadow
'83 4002

Nice!
I was fortunate enough to play a Shadow and a 4002 at RIO and they are now high on my want list!

Jdog,

How do you like the new addition?

By the way, is that 85 BT the one with the THIN NECK?????

Jdog, it almost looks like your basses are in some 3-D TV show!

Ha!!! Thanks guys.

Tone-man, that '85 is the one!!! It's for sale in the For Sale section. To answer how good the Shadow is, well the '85 for sale should say it all!

The Shadow I checked out had a great neck! Very comfortable! Unfortunately I didn't plug it in.

Shadows are known to have thin fast necks.

My Shadow neck is really thin and fast, but the '85 is actually slightly thinner and faster. But not enough difference to warrant keeping both.

Your metronome needs new batteries?

The thread title reminded me of my old band in the 90s, we were called 9 Worlds, a 3-piece with me on Hamer 12-string bass, and our guitarist played a 330 and a S.Hoffs. We gigged regularly at a club in Houston that was popular with the astronauts. They dug us, probably because of the band name, and would give us mission patches everytime they went up. One flight took our CD along and played it in orbit....so, Rics in Space!

Ricks in Space - I was thinking Jefferson Starship.

Nice trio Jdog.
