Congratulations Steve, it's a very personal thing, but I think the color is cool and I wish I could afford to get one of all of them. I haven't hated a neck on any Ric I've had, some have been favorites but all playable.
That's why I have to skip town after a while, the RAS gets to be too much.

Wow, that looks a LOT like my old '82 4003S. Except that one had the split PG. I think.

Mmmm...she looks mighty tasty, Steve (you lucky dog). Congrats on your new acquisition. An awesome bass in an equally awesome color.
