I love the tone Priest is getting on his 4001. THAT'S the sound that used to get me kicked out of bands back in the 70's!

Ahhh,,,Steve's just loud man. Volume makes any Rick sound baddass.

4001s are baddest anyway...

Sweet was my first favorite rock band when I was a kid. YES came shortly after. Funny, when I was a kid, I never made the connection that both Steve & Chris played Ricks. Anybody know what kind of amp Steve was using in that 'Turn It Down' video?

You playing the bagpipes now?

Hey Gerry - No; don't actually play them. I just like to pretend I do since they're such the potent chick magnet.

no, this isn't me, but I found a Ric 3001 being played on one of my all-time fave rave songs - Blondie's IN THE FLESH

Debbie Harry. Ohh she was (is) HOT!
Did you say there was a RIC in there somewhere? Sorry, didn't notice. I'll have to watch it again....and again....she's singing that to me you know

As I remember, it was a 3000 bass.

hmmm, there must be some confusion here ... I thought she was singing it to ME!

I think the one in that video is a jetglo version of this:

but maybe I'm wrong.... it's happened before.
