Look what arrived yesterday. Absolutely amazing and well worth the wait! I've never played a 4004 series bass before but the 4004LK is a dream to play - especially with the oil finish. Cudos to John Hall and the fine folks at RIC!

Sweet. I got to play Brian Crisman's in Columbus. It is an excellent bass.

Well worth the wait.


I suspect they take a little longer to make than the standard ones....

Fantastic looking bass,a work of art you must be chuffed to bits.

Shaun - my bits are certainly chuffed!
Brian - thanks for the congrats! Do you have any pics to show the difference in carving on your Lemmy? It would be interesting to see the difference.
The certificate says it is 30 of 60 but I didn't think that RIC sent out the certificates sequentially. Maybe you and Jared could let us know what numbers you received.
