Re: Be prepared to flip out!!!
Seems to me the folks at RIC have been quieter than usual on this forum...
Perhaps something is up...
I'm still waiting to "flip out" as well...

I have NO idea what to do with those skinny stringed things... I'm just a bass player...
Re: Be prepared to flip out!!!
Wouldn't it be nice if the "flipper outer" was more of something like this!
'73 4001 MG '88 4003S JG '89 4003S FG '91 4003S MG

Re: Be prepared to flip out!!!
They're just giving us plenty of time to get prepared...

Re: Be prepared to flip out!!!
At this point, I'm glad it's taking a while, because I'm broke

Route to personal bankruptcy: announcement of a "4004C/5" with contoured oiled walnut wings and less heroic neck width (1.75" nut is about right) and a "4003/5" with binding, traditional cosmetics and a 1.75" nut.
650D, 660/12
Non-Ric: Precision 5, Sterling 4H, Stingray 5H, Bongo 5H, ThunderChief 5 x 2, L-1000, SG, Godin A6 & A12
"Rickenbacker?!?! You might as well be playing a tambourine!"

Re: Be prepared to flip out!!!
I find the 1 7/8" nut width perfect on my Zons. 
Re: Be prepared to flip out!!!
I figured what it will going to be!

they already got Hofner, john's 325 and George's Gretsch Duo Jet as add ons. I'm sure there would be more.

Tomer, it's a Hofner bass, not a 4001...
And for the first time, we'll be able to play Macca's bass with its legendary Strat whammy bar!!!

Re: Be prepared to flip out!!!
Gotcha. Language foulup--my fault!
Still...that whammy bar??? I understand that some players might want to play lead riffs, but it's odd to see and nonsensical in any sort of real world.
Oh, sorry...suspension of disbelief is rule #1 when playing a video game.
But why chase after realism in the controllers?
(Exhausted with hassling myself...)
