They dont make black binding and black trim anymore. I dont see them too often but 2 (now 3) forumites recently bought one. (One of them was me :))

An online currency converter tells me 1000 GBP = 1170 euro (So little difference these days?). I paid slightly more. I paid 1275 euro's including postage for my 4003 MID/BT. For comparision: a new Rick would do 1800 euro or more over here.

i think i've got the bug, =/ im already looking at more 4003's on ebay =p
I think i have found the make i'm going to stick with, no matter how hard i try i cant play the Jaguar anymore, it just doesn't feel as nice, the quality isn't there.
After spending 2 years modifying the Jag bass ive realised i can achive my perfect bass without modification, a ric.
I just love it :D

Yes it is - the one in the RRF calendar - April IIRC.
