Tripped upon this one last night. I emailed the seller, waiting for a response. I don't know if it is still available, if ANYONE would like the link, drop me an Email in my profile.

I'M NOT AFTER IT SO FEEL FREE!

I have NO IDEA, more than I can afford....

I'm sure someone here will have a much better idea than I!

There you go Wints, very well put!

Cool bass! But the E and the A strings are much farther apart than the A and the D strings at the bridge. So I'm out too!

It looks almost new....Is that the one Craig Brody had a couple of years ago?

Hey everyone,

One of the fellow's who checked it out said they are looking for 25K!

And I quote...."DAMN".

And I believe it's virtually unplayable too...

Nice wall art though...

I'm actually hoping that Ric does a limited re-issue of that older 4000 1960'ish design next year when the design hits 50 years old (it came out in 1957 as the 2nd long scale production bass made by anyone). I'd put my name in the hat for one, but not for 25K! Gulp.

I think that pickguard design is wicked - anyone got a template for one or know of anyone who can make them up? Would pickguarian do it, do you think?

He can do it, but i'm sure he'd need an original to make the copy from.
