Available for preorder. That thing  is breath taking.

"NOTE: The bass in the pictures on the right is a mock-up based on previous special runs we've done and not an actual bass, because the actual basses haven't been built yet. So, while the bass in the photos is an excellent approximation of how these instruments will look, the actual final product may differ slightly."

These will have the new adjustable bridge - and a single bi-flex truss rod. Maybe a sign that the dual rods will soon be phased out, maybe not. we'll see.

The pic shows a Plexi TRC and vintage knobs, but again, it's just a mock-up.

It would look killer with the guard swapped for black

I like it even better than Montezuma Brown.

$4,425.00 + tax CDN is the price quoted on their website. Nice but not a chance at that price.

Please keep your eyes open for my stolen 1973 Burgundyglo Rickenbacker 4001 Serial # MD1582. It was stolen in November of 2006. Reward for its return. Thx!

Agreed.

What will it cost to get a run-of-the-mill used 4003 and have it retopped with a thin veneer of figured maple and finished in high-gloss tobacco sunburst?

That's even worse than the current exchange rate, since the US price us $2998.
