LOL :lol: How I wish you really have such authority over the wife....
I may need to go underground and start 'smuggling' again.

You are right. The Singapore GP is just round the corner . Hope this will boost up our local economy a little.
Though I'm not a big fan of the F1, but some great acts are coming to town :mrgreen: (Bon Jovi, Maroon 5, Spandau Ballet etc)

This can't be true. Can it?
The Beatles only had seven Rics. Your 22 would make you infinitely greater than The Beatles.

Way back in the 90s, on an old, long defunct Rick website I cannot recall the name of, I met another Rick enthusiast who owned something like 17 Ricks, all of them basses, 4001's and 4003's, he had wall where he hung all of them up to display. He was such a ROLE MODEL to me!!!

Rickenbackers or wives?
Life is suffering; the cause of suffering is desire. Envy is a deadly sin. Save your soul, go ahead and buy another one....

I have 10 Rics.
My wife came to me a week ago and said: "I thought about it and you should get another guitar or bass, but make sure it's something special".
I wasn't even asking! we had a pre-merital list with the models I am allowed to get and I bought everything on the list + a shadow...

I am blessed :)
So long and thanks for all the fish!
