Hi Guys,
Yes the newbie is back and here is the full and somewhat entertaining story...Yes it's true I bought a Ric 4003 in Midnight Blue for my own Christmas present.After playing it I just hated the hum from the pickups.And while the Blue finish was gorgeous,it wasn't me(Black uusually is my first choice!).All of my basses are black so Im not sure why I ordered it in blue,just trying something new I guess.But i played it and played it and just kept thinking " i think I like my Gedddy Lee Jazz better and it was $300 cheaper!" So I was kinda wishy washy from the start,I have always wanted a Ric since I can remember but it wasn't doing it for me.So I think about selling..NO i haven't had it long enough! I don't know what Im doing! YES I must sell it! I'll buy something else with the money! so anyway weeks pass and I finally decide to sell it on Ebay,and boy did it sell! But the guy who bought it was a first time ebayer I think and didn't send me my money.So i thought "it's a sign for me to keep it!" So i played it and played it and thought" I can live with the color right?" A week later I get my money fromn the guy out of the blue.OUCH!! No more Ricky! It's gone!So ya know what I did with the money?...I bought another Ric in Jetglo! And i am very very happy!
THE END
