    You know what this is. It's awesome.

    We have here a stunning example of a 2004 4003 in Fireglo finish.

    Functionally, it's perfect, with no tail lift, functional truss rods, low action, minimal fretwear, quiet electronics, and a straight, very playable neck.

    Cosmetically, it has been gigged and rehearsed, but is in excellent condition; a few small dings here and there on the sides and one on the point of the headstock, but none through the wood and you really have to look to find them. I can't get any of them to photograph.

    It looks, feels, and sounds awesome, and is far more versatile than many Ric naysayers might have you believe. Very punchy and can do anything from a vintage thump to a grinding roar.

    Comes with the Ric hardshell case (great shape, with all latches functioning) and a strap fitted with Schaller strap locks.

    Looking for $1450 shipped CONUS OBO.

    I always underestimated Ric's. I picked one up at a music store last week and could not put it down. Sooo fun to play. You're right, they are way more versatile than many people think!

    Had a few more offers, but I'm going to hold out for a sale or trade that provides me with more cash. I may change my mind, but it's still here.
