+1 and probably not the only one, that's the VALUE PRICE of the year! :eek: I've seen 4001 bodies alone sell for 800 $US (the prices for genuine Rick parts have gone fucking paranormal).

So buy NOW refund tomorrow by selling stuff. Just admit it - the furniture was in the way when cleaning the house and it didn't match the carpet anyway. Besides, it's perfectly fine to sleep on the floor, we have just been spoiled with beds and stuff here in the Western world. :p :lol:


wow where did u see 4001 bodys for 800 dollars :lol: i want in


What You need so many bodies for, Devil worship - what, You too? :p

Anyway, try Evilbay :poke: for stripped Ric bodies, don't give up.

Eh, it's all good. After the setup the bass quickly turned to mmmmmmmmmmmmmagic.

Also, they cost only $1,599 if you buy from the right dealer. :thumb:

what dealer All I seem to find is right around $2000

http://www.northcoastmusic.com/ was where I tried to buy mine, but they didn't have a Fireglo in stock. So I took that price and bought one from American Musical Supply. I think the small dealers all sell them for around $1600. It's the big stores that try to get $2000+ but they'll move if you ask them.

I mean I love my Ric, but there's no way I would pay $2000 for an off-the-shelf-instrument. At that price point I'd much rather get something custom.
