The 4005 looks like it has always belonged to your family.

Outstanding Chris.

However, the family looks a bit crowded and my birthday is Thursday, any thoughts?

I guess what's next is....cool the jets!!....

Unless I came across a deal that I positively, absolutely couldn't turn down..... Image

You see, I run ads in the local papers and I get calls ALL THE TIME regarding RIC's....some I turn down, others I CAN'T turn down....(being the Ricophile that I am).....

Chris I like that super, messed up, wild, color shot! Looks like abstract or at least a modern art rendition of a "Fuzzy Rickenbacker Dream"

Looks kinda like a stained glass window too.

Hey have fun with that one. I have seen a lot of Ric,s used before but I really do not remember ever seeing one of these on stage anywhere before.

Nice Axe!

Chris - Congratulations! This took some time, didn't it? Looks exactly like my '66. The neck profile is absolutely perfect for me - slim and wide.

There is a double bound '66 mapleglo available in Chicago, for anyone else interested in a 4005. The price is going to be a new record.
