Thanx, thanx and thanx.

More pictures of the 4000 over here. For a long time I owned only 2 Rick's. The 4000 and a 4001 FL. But Since hearing the 4001 I missed a neck pickup on the 4000. But I don't think I will ever be happier with a bass than the moment I bought the 4000. I wanted a Rickenbacker for some time then allready but thought I was not able to buy one. Then this one came along for a price I could barely pay.

This one stays forever.

Well it's not artsy (more of a product shot) but maybe suitable for framing. This is my new 4003 MID from the recent MF sale. November 2010 date.

I like this one,
Mainly because of the aluminium tail!

Great photo Pete. I miss the greatest commercial aircraft ever built. Nothing looked like it, or sounded like it, especially with those those fantastic Rolls-Royce/Snecma Olympus engines screaming as it wound up...as I'm sure you know!

Aspect ratio, Jeff?

I'm sure my car's compression ratio is something but not sure what.

Nice!

What does the sticker next to one of the knobs say?

My car doesn't know it's own compression ratio anymor either, it needs a new turbo, as the current one has the hick-ups!

I was keeping to musical terms, but photographically speaking, yes, it would be aspect ratio.

Here's the close up of that sticker. Not so clear but taken from about 15 feet away.

Actually, here it is in all its glory @ 4055 x 1250 pixels.

You know, when that Musician's Friend deal popped up my initial thought was that I didn't want a blue one. Looking at the photo above makes me wish I had made a move on that deal before the delivery date was at Jan of 2013.
