I spent over a year trying to convince a guy I know who doesn't play any more to sell me his 80 something ric 4001. It had been sat at his parents house for years. The day I finaly convinced him he didn't need it any more we went to pick it up and his mum told me that she had given it to someones 12 y/o son from her church imagine how that felt

That's a fair point. I would really love to own this bass. But if I'm spending that kind of money I'm gonna wanna play it first and it's the best part of a day away. I've never played a ric as early as this. Not that I've ever disliked one either but it's big money. But f*** me this is nice -
So if I want a 'hot' ric this isn't the way to go and I'm better off with a later 4001 or even a 4003? but I still want some sort of good investment ric but one I'm not gonna be scared to gig. What should I be looking for? Also what is the difference between a 4001 and a 4003? Sorry I've hijacked your thread by the way

Absolute stunner! What's the difference between the toaster and the pup on the modern ric?
-
Shiiiit that's nice. Is it much different to a real one?
-
I can vouch for that jazz being amazing. I have the same one in CAR.
-
If I had a dargie I would for sure. I don't like dargies but I do like this
-
Yeah either 82 or 83 it's basically an sb900 but White and gold. Plays and sounds great. Known as and refered to by peers as the poor mans Alembic -
Woah that's steep. I value my aria a bit higher than that. I really like this bass (for want of a better word) though. I don't think I've ever seen anything so cool
-
Any interest in an Aria SB II elite as a trade?
-
Must...... Resist..... Vigier

Yeah she's a bit battle scarred. Missing almost all of the finish, missing the bridge cover, pegs a a bit rusty, grub screws in bridge are shagged but she still sounds great somehow. Go figure :s
-
I'll get one up as soon as I get the internet back on my laptop. I hope I'm not building you up for a fall
-
Anyone wanna see my slidey pick-up grabber?

My unintentional Fender Precision Phil Lynott Tribute

I love the starwars touch, and the rest of the bass. I'd probably loose the LEDs but I'm a purist. I play (and have always played) roto's. I was given a set of d'adarios by a producer, they didn't stay for long. I've learned to stick with what I know where strings are concearned these days. Where'd you get the knob from? I want one! -
I think it's an age thing. Mine is buckled to hell and back. I've never seen one that's not. That said I've only seen 2 in the flesh and I'm wayy too young to remember them new :s.
-
To those who own multiple T-40s. I have an early non rail one, is the difference in tone that massive between it and the railed one? I kinda wish mine had more bite.
-
No worries. I promise you this jazz looks, is built and sounds better than anything that's come out of America since the 70s.
-
I'll take that as a no?
-
Any interest in a battered CIJ 65/66 Reissue jazz in CAR with matching headstock and rosewood "dots n bound" fingerboard and neck and custom wound shed pickups and a badass as a trade?
-
Does it have the birdseye neck? Is it the one with the bigger bridge?
-
Just sold rich a Delano p pickup. Very easy fella to deal with and a knowledgeable bloke too. Spotless deal. Great guy. Top marks. Awesome.
-
Offiially a top bloke, easy to deal with and a top geezer too. Can't say a bad word about Roon.
-
Do you still have it?
-
No worries dude. Just wish I had the cash. Ive been after a nice black black maple 'ray for a while. Good luck with the sale. If you change your mind let me know. Ash
