Oh man, those are ALL beautiful....

I've gotta add mine to the gorgeous lineup. Mine's a Paul W. refin, and it is surely my BBR dream come true!

Nothing like a little eye candy while you wait in anticipation!

Looks awesome Melissa! My favorite color has always been blue and I was always bummed when I couldn't find that true blue rickenbacker (not a fan of the blue boy). Now with the 2005 blueburst (or should I say imminently-arriving-blueburst), everything is falling into place

I'll get you guys back for all of these pictures! The last week is a lot harder than the last couple months, that is for sure.

Alisha,
Here is the back of the one you passed up. It's now up on the Bay.
This is by far my favorite finish, so much so that I plan on having my '66 4005OS completely repaired and completed in the BBR finish.
As for the blue boy, I love that finish, my 4004Cii sounds and looks gorgeous. Not my favorite but I still enjoy that light blue look. Goes well with my MIJ '58 RI Tele Pink Paisley

Edgar,

I saw your auction....I don't know why anybody has put in a bid yet...they are missing out on a great deal. I was sad to pass but ended up getting lucky on another bass.

Alisha,

No worries. As long as you get your bass and you are happy. The finish is extremely gorgeous. You'll love it.
I know it will sell. I'm not worried.

Cheers!

Melissa, yours is 1 of 1, definitely.

If I hadn't bought two guitars within the last two weeks and wasn't negotiating for a third, I would have bid on yours, Edgar.
