Or just 4003FL?

I found this S5 in the register, but unless it was radically modified, I have my doubts it was RIC factory built.

MAYBE _4003S5.jpg

Looks like one of dem TalkBass specials; certainly not made at RIC.

You'll find a photo of one in my book (page 75 of the first edition, page 77 of the second edition), along with fretless examples of several different models.

Then it shouldn't be in the register.

Gary's (doctorwho)?

Hey, Joey! No, that one belongs (or belonged maybe) to Bill Henshell. Gary's is the fretless set-neck 4000, also in the book.

Oh right, II forgot about Bill's. I need to get the book out.
Gary had so many stolen that I forget which ones he said were recovered.

I KNEW IT when I read his post, I was certain that there is one in the book! Thanks Bassduke, for the comment AND the book! I'm STILL enjoying mine!

Thanks, folks. It's hard to believe it has been ten years since the first edition came out - six years since the second!

FYI, I still have my 4001S/FL. Just played it on an album for a friend of mine which should be out soon.
