Anyone have pictures of the different bridges found on the Ric 4001 bass? How did they change from '61 to the 80's?

It seems the difference happened in 1973 when the 4001 was revamped, but I'm curious if that's the only change, and what even that change was.

Anyone have thoughts? Pictures are nice too!

What about the seven-screw tailpieces? They are the best ones!
