Thanks! That's my baby, my first Rick bass, made in 1974. Still have her, still as beautiful as ever.

I have NO idea what to do with those skinny stringed things... I'm just a bass player...

The guard looks white, those oven knobs look striking against the white though!

No, the guard is gold painted, too. It is just difficult to photograph. I took my iPhoto to improve the quality of the pics. The gold is hard to photograph, I know now. But the "iPhotoed" are fine for me for the first step. - Let's call it art: :wink:

Here one of the untreated photos. Here it is better to see. How the colours work together.

Here is a 350 Larry Davis did that I really like. I don't think its quite like an actual Ric color though. Saw it on eBay the other day too....
