That one looks great with the vintage trim Marc. How is she holding up?


How many do I have? Too many, I suppose. I stopped counting after 18.

Buttering me up again Ron? What are you planning on trading or selling me this time? :lol:

No worries about the white 4001. I did not have any emotional attachment to it. As you know, I am very happy with the JG 4003 bass you sent me. It's a keeper IMO.

I have the twin to Kira's 4001 as well albeit in Autumn Glo. Considering that I am a guitar player first, having two Rickenbacker basses is probably a bit excessive but..........hey I love playing bass. :D

The special one to be named later

The most I had at one time was 7 and all together I've owned 12 or 13, I think
