Great looking trio, Jim!
Even though they are Fireglo.

I prefer it actually, but you'll need to paint the truss rod cover to match.
As if I haven't tried to get a black TRC
I wrote an e-mail to RIC about 8 months ago but they didn't ever answer.
Maybe because my english is bad and they didn't understand what I wanted though
My ABSOLUTE favourite RIC is the one on this video

It's called Rickenbacker vs Precision (as if it wasn't clear which is going to win

)

Another vote for SnoGlo. I was lucky enough to get one and I love it.
I'm probably in the minority but I am not a fan of black on white Rics.

If I were to pick strictly on color I'd probably go with the SnoGlo... but I usually go with how the instrument feels and resonates against my body and in my hands. Either bass you can't go wrong. Good luck and please keep us posted.

I think he'd probably pick the snowglo one and put a kitten shaped pickguard on it...somehow

MID. No way a bass would come into my house only because the color is more collectable.

In the interest of equal screen time, since I posted the Snowglo.... and to heave a bone to Jim Glen.

Snowglo is so nice, but my next Ric would be MID.
