Experimental new model?

This pic was posted to the official Ric FB page. Between the Ruby 12-string and what looks like a "480LK" guitar, is a bass with a 325-style body, unfinished.

Speaking of experiments, they also posted a pic of a new inlay material that looks like the old "crushed pearl".

You know a 325 bass would sell well if the price was comparable to a 4003.

Wow, first thing - I can't believe they glued those Lemmy wings to a lefty guitar neck!
The bass is kind of interesting. I'd actually like to see a short scale 650 style bass with HB1s. Or dual toaster option.
That would kill with flats!

Maybe it's a reversed righty like the beloved 4001c64.
