The Dudepit RIC

Sign in to disble this ad
Ok, for those of you who remember The Dudepit (RIP), this is the Fireglo 4003 that was pictured at the top of the Ric forum for quite awhile.

It's a 2005 upgraded to the new pickups and electronics rig including vintage tone circuit, adjustable pole pieces and 330k pots. Dunlop strap locks installed, original strap pegs and bridge pup cover included. The nut was professionally shaved down and is nice and low. Previously owned by Specplyr.

Has some minor player wear but it's very difficult to get it to show up in any pics. This thing is nearly mint. You won't find a nicer Fireglo.

The case has a small crack from shipping.

Pics here -

and Dude's older pics are still here -

$1650 shipped double-boxed to the CONUS only. No Paypal. USPS money order preferred, anything else will wait for check to clear.

330k pots?
Wow, no wonder Rics sound so unique.

Bump for a great Ric. If I was doing a classic rock / prog-rock gig, I would keep it.

I got a line on something else, no trades anymore. Reasonable offers considered.

Be patient, Mitch. It is already a reasonable price.

Will consider trade for 02-05 "chunky neck" Jetglo 4003 + cash. I actually prefer that neck profile over the new Rickenjackson profile.

Awww crap , this was THE bass that fuelled my dreams when I was a 'pitter... I used to log on to the forums, just to stare at that beautiful fireglo...

I could pay it off, but I live in Oz (Australia), so I'm guessing you're not interested....

Cheers

Andy in Oz

Yeah man, that's how I wound up buying it...

unfortunately for me, it's not the best fit for a metal band... although I did spend a good bit of time blasting out Metallica and Motorhead covers when I first got it no worries, now I have a Jetglo

sorry, I have no idea what's involved with shipping to Australia if it's expensive or complicated or poses a serious risk of damage, it may be better not to go there

The simple answer is: drug addiction...
