Suggestions to shop for a Ric4003

http://www.the-music-connection.com/ric.htm and http://www.pickofthericks.com/new_arrivals2.htm are my two favorites. Great customer service and price.

The recently shipped list on Rickenbacker's website only says what has shipped and to where. To find out if it is a customer order or available you'd have to call the store to find out.

 

I bought a new 4003 Blueburst w/ VTC from Russ at http://www.classicaxe.com/. Great service. Referred from Ricresource.com bass forum. Call him if his site doesnt have anything specific on it, he keeps many Ric basses in stock.

Check there also for used 4003's.

 

the montezuma brown basses look soo nice, never seen that color before and its 2006?

 

well its not too far away maybe you can wait alittle longer

 

Mike Parks from The Music Connection is fantastic. I got my Monty Brown 4003 from him.

 

If you can't wait, MF has mid blues in stock.

When you click on the availability link, it says 7/07 for every color.

 

I feel your pain. I'm GASing for a midnight blue 4003 as well, preferably new. It'll be a few months before I can afford one but I'm already looking. I've tried a few out (all have been Fireglo, which is beautiful but I REALLY dig the midnite blue) so the lust factor is extremely high. I loved the tone and the feel. So I know it's the bass for me.....just gotta find one.....

 

Well, since all of you are full of money and out of patience, I'll sell mine for $1500

 

Did someone say they wanted Midnight Blue.....

....I'd jump on it. Chris at Pick of the Ricks is great to deal with.
