RIC reissues the 4005

[Jean-Luc Pickguard]

They said they wouldn't be reissuing it, but here it is with some sensible updates. I don't think I'll be spending £5799 to get one though.

It's great news, but it'll be rather expensive I'll bet.

I have a FG 4005 V ordered right now.  
Under $4,000.00 US dollars.

The expected delivery is in summer 2024.

I’m very excited!

Yes, still under with the taxes. Shipping included.

I want the British Racing green but it’s not available….it must be a special order in the video.

 

There is an video of the Ric factory somewhere…it shows completed 4005v’s.

 

Found it!

I know I started the other thread - sent Mrs T the link with the word “fortieth?” 
 

her reply…

 

“That’s a gross amount”

don’t think she’s taking the hint…

A 'Gross' is twelve dozen, so 144.

144 x 40, your big birthday, is 5760, which is close enough to the price they'll be in this country to make it your destiny to buy one of these. 

It's fate, nothing can be that big a coincidence. The heavenly bodies have aligned and given you a sign that only the foolhardy would ignore. 

 

But don't let me pressure you. 😁

I’m realistic, I know what’s in her bank account…she could easily do it…

 

But the reason her account is healthy and mine is always at DNR stage is because she doesn’t buy basses 😂
