What piqued my interest again was a group of photos taken by a woman at the Louisiana Hayride 55-60 years ago and posted to FB by her son. There was a photo of Bob Luman with James Kirkland playing that Ric 4000 instead of the enormous upright he was usually seen with. I started poking around. Looked at Kirkland's FB page, and there's a pic of him playing the Ric with Ricky Nelson. I had seen James Burton playing a Ric in Ricky's band before (possibly a 381) but not Kirkland. Also, his page includes a promo pic of Ricky playing a Ric flat top acoustic.
Walnut body. Is it possible that they painted over less-than-perfect-grain SW's - like they did with some C64's?
Still, very nice.
