Very Nice Ray, CONGRATULATIONS!

Great pictures.

What are your thoughts?

I'll tell you another fact, the neck on this babe is way thinner than the 04 FG I just sold.

Perhaps the longer TRC has messed every one up but this baby is sweet!

Thank you RIC! Another very happy customer here, not to mention my very first brand new Rick...

Congrats, Ray! Mine (if the CME ever lets me have it!) will be my second ever brand new Rick. I bought my first 25 years ago.

Thanks for the pics.

The leader of the pack...

Looks like everybody else's. Sounds great. My first new 4003, it's alot punchier than the others. I like the push-pull pot. I got mine from Rhoads Music. Thanks Jim! I still don't believe I have one!
I think I should buy another bass...

Hooray, add another 4003DCM to our list of proud owners! Congratulations Gerald, take time to sniff the case glue well, and have fun breaking her in! Definitely plug up and play here for awhile - there is just something extra-special about these DCMs Image I played mine for a straight three hours before I realized that my calluses weren't that good anymore - ouch Image

Nice collection Stanley. Is that orange Rick a standard color?

Greg, I think that is Stanley's camera's translation of "Red" with black trim. The redder one behind it appears to be Burgundy.

Paul, are you referring to the Rick that's 2 behind the DCM? If so, that's some translation!
