Interesting Francesco, I just dug a little deeper and mine is a Feb. 2004 also.

Musta been a good month for Blueboys.

Yeah John. I'm very proud of her. I got her second hand. There is no Ric dealership here in Ireland and they are almost impossible to come by. AND EXPENSIVE!!!!! I got her with the vintage Ric hardcase too.

I love that 4003 though.....

Peter: Are you aware that Blue Boy is an actual Rick finish? It's a power blue color and was the Color of the Year in 2004.

Peter,
This is why it's easier to stick to Fireglo, no confusion about colour.

Personally I prefer your deeper Blue to the pansy pale blue.

Naw,
No enemies here, only varying levels of fanaticism for various Ric models and colours.

Hah! Just playin around with the new guy.

MID blue is a finish I'd like to have. Its a tough call nowdays with the available walnut wings though.

Im thinking of ordering a Mapleglo 4003 just for the wings.

I did that last year when I needed a temporary bass for the summer, Scott. They look gorgeous. Also added a toaster and a finger rest.
