New Ruby 4003 2014 day !!!!
I have to say this is the 4003 i have been waiting for, as soon as it was taken from the box and i got my hands on her i knew this one was special, it has a fantastic acoustic ring from the body unplugged !!!
hooked up to an amp it just growls effortlessly , Ric have done a great job on this one zero defects, i didn't even have to adjust the neck lowered the action and raised the pups sorted !!

George, IMHO the mark of an exceptional electric instrument is it's ability to sound good acoustically! I have a few like that!!! I'm glad you found a really good one!! Now rock that "bad boy" hard!!

Great bass playing and gorgeous bass. What kind of amp?
Re: New Ruby 4003 2014 day !!!!
I am so jealous! If I ever get a 2nd Rick, that is the one I am dying for, Ruby is such a smokin' finish. What a nice axe. Enjoy it!
