I like it!
Kenny has a 4005 in the same trans green color.

I agree. Its a cool color and looks good on a Rick.
I've seen this bass on Ebay at least 3 times before. I wonder if it has issues?

Same here. IF I'm not mistaken, the Emperor did the refin and was the first seller?

Sorry guys, not for me. It needs a yellow pickguard; then Tractorglo.

That bass would be great for a St. Patricks Day gig.

Especially for us who can't stand the Packers... or that finish on the bass.

I think you refer to an old one that Andy Winter has...which if I recall, could *possibly* be Roger Waters' old 4001...that one was unplayable and had no electronics, I believe. And was far older than a '77.

nope - not Andy's...this one was on gbase for $1500 IIRC - photographed outside, leaning againsta brick wall. those who looked into it were told there we "neck issues".
i don't remember it having the Hipshot and plexi surround at that time.

That is a purdy green! I think Ric should make it a standard color....!
