That is one of the few basses that I regret selling ... and I have sold dozens ...

Not me, I couldn't play those damn things, and I had 3 of them at one time. Of course I am not as cleaver as you are Jeff, and didn't think to mod the tail peice to widen the string splay. I would like to try a rath'ed s5 to see if I COULD play it though. Oh btw, whats the story on that mocha-glo s5 you have? That is a looker :cool:
 
they made a 5 string for a couple years, and i am damn determined to find one someday. they show up on ebay every now and then, but i never have the kind of scratch they are asking for. as a ric fan and a 5+ string only player, these are a dream come true.
 
I had a blackstar, always wanted a shadow but not for they have been going for the last 3 years!

They have mostly been crazy, but you can still got lucky. I got my shadow nearly a year ago for about what you'd expect to pay for a standard 4001/4003. It wasn't all-original, but it is an awesome player, and the mods are reversible when I get around to it.
