In memory of RJD, I should name that bass, "The Tiger" so anyone playing it would, "Ride The Tiger"! "Ride The Tiger" is a line from the DIO song titled, "Holy Diver".
JETGLO should officially be renamed JETGLO ROCKS! :-)

Here's a couple of pics of one of my other flamey Ricks. It's hard to really get pictures that bring out all the figuring though, I'll have to keep playing with lighting...

Wow! Wish they would go back to quilt like that on the 4004 basses. They did a few in the early (initial?) batches of the Cheyenne II back around 1999-2000.
