$4000 is a bit much don't you think?????? The last DCM on eBay didn't sell for less than that.

Yeah, but it is a rare 4001 4003!rikk wrote:nov_1981 wrote:http://www.gbase.com/Stores/Gear/GearDe ... em=1791506I would love white with white binding. Very classy in combination with a toaster..

Yep you got it right ... the people on this forum are great ... you all put up with my rants ... I sometimes exaggerate to make a point ...jingle_jangle wrote:Jeff, you've always been a guy with strongly-felt and clearly-stated opinions. No surprises there...but surely you meant that you will not need any more Ricks?
But with my nice collection of 14 basses I could sell my 6 Rics and still be just fine ... there are plenty of low b strings around here ...
I am looking to build a few more basses ... one that I am working on is to someday build a 5 string Entwistle Exploiter bass ... and a few other projects ...
And I must admit I strongly dislike most of the COY colors ...
And if I had to keep just one Ric bass it would be this one here ...

Certainly is lighter in physical weight, no? Even with the extra string on it!jwr2 wrote:And if I had to keep just one Ric bass it would be this one here ...

Yep that 4004ci is a very light and very comfortable bass ... the neck is really sweet and the oil finish makes a nice mid growl ...johnallg wrote:Certainly is lighter in physical weight, no?

hey how about oil finish as a COY?
Re: Which is your favorite C.O.T.Y. rick ?
Thats the one bass I'd love to own. ( the 4004 CI )

I'll remember that if I ever get ready to sell mine, Scott.

That Sea Green 4003 on the eBay auction went to me, and after I get home, I'll post pictures of it. Bob Young sold it to me back last April/May. If you have the RRF calendar, it's the April "playmate."

Blueburst makes my knees go weak. Echoing what Marc said, I didn't really get the RAS for it until it was discontinued and no longer readily available. 'Course a 4003 BBR isn't exactly in my budget right now anyway, but it's fun drooling....

For $4000 I would want 3 or 4 4001/4003 bassesrikk wrote:nov_1981 wrote:http://www.gbase.com/Stores/Gear/GearDe ... em=1791506I would love white with white binding. Very classy in combination with a toaster..

to me a pretty coat of paint does not double or triple the value of a bass. The pretty paint doesn't make it sound or play better.
