Thanx all! :-)

What is the 4th bass from the left?  Was that a particular model of 4003?

4th from left is a Shadow. Rickenbacker made 50 or 60 of these in '86 for a celebration of a US music shop. It is my best sounding and best playing Rick. And that is what I read from most Shadow owners.

Nice!

Do you have a black rug to show display your blue basses on?  :mrgreen:

No, I don't. But they look good against a white wall also. ;-)

Here's my one and only Ric. A Craigslist Special!
Why did Salvador Dali cross the road?
Clocks.

Me and my Shadow in a rehearsal studio last night. The keyboard player took the pic.

Nice pic! And it keeps the keyboard player out of mischief for a few seconds.

That's a nice looking bass. Don't often actually see one on a human!

Yes, they are.  Here's another one on a real human.

That's the guy who can play any Ric he wants and if it doesn't exist he can have one built for him. And he chose a Shadow. Just sayin' ;-)

Mine isn't mint, has some signs of use, so I'm not afraid to take it out.

Coincidence?  :mrgreen:

This Antiques Roadshow was repeated awhile back. I missed the original broadcast. It amused me because JH and Mike Gutierrez were known to each other via the Rick Resource forum, so his appearance was no accident.

He probably couldn't find a Fireglo at the time   :P
