I'm back!

Post by Ron P »

I don't know if many folks remember me as I used to post here years ago ('05-'06) when I was big Rics. My user name back then was Highway Star. I kinda fell off that and sold everything except for my '73 4001. Well I recently reacquired one of my departed Rics, an '89 4003 MG/BT. I've been playing a lot of fivers over the past few years and figured I didn't need anymore Rics, but came to realize that I liked the tone and made the owner of the '89 a worthwhile offer. So now I have a gigable Ric in the arsenal and am back to trade notes.

Well, I don't remember you, but welcome back anyway! :lol:

And, how about some pictures of that '89 4003 MG/BT? Love the black trim on Mapleglo! :D
I have NO idea what to do with those skinny stringed things... I'm just a bass player...

Welcome back Ron. Why not sign back in under your former user name?

Welcome back, Ron! I sure remember you. :wink: Nice that you were able to reacquire one of your Ricks, congrats on that. :)
Maybe Peter or Gil could send you a password rest if you like to use your old Highway Star user name again.
JETGLO should officially be renamed JETGLO ROCKS! :-)

Hi Ron welcome back to the fold. You should never have left. You don't need to actually own a Rick to hang out here. Having RAS is good enough :D
