Nice collection!

Is that flamed maple I spy on the Ric?

I would say that's flamed, maybe maple, but all rick are made from mapple I think ... doesn't it ?

they are. but finding flamed maple on a Ric bass isn't as easy as it used to be.

Is that Fender an original '70? Nice!

You can contact RIC to swap that righty TRC if you so desire.

That is odd. I've never seen a lefty Ric with a righty reading name plate before. I wonder if it's non-original? Usually when they use the righty headstocks/necks on lefties they use a righty name plate but etch the logo to still read right side up:

That's an original 1969-1970-1971 JB and that's must be an original Rick 4001 from 1979. I think Rick is used to mount LH basses with the stock they have. That's not a big industrial process... So my bass has a totally right handy neck/headstock, with a left handed body. Look at Paul Mc Cartney Rick Collection, you'll find some. Actually rick made a bunch of different LH basses...

Do you mean that rick would "offer" me a TRC (Tus Rod Cover?)right handed with left handed writting ? That could be interesting ? But I though Rick asn't answering mails...

Nice to say you back here !!! I've already send you a message in 2008 on your rick picture. You're collection is f...king amazing. How are you managing to play all your basses ?;)

Well, I would be very interested in having the same HSC as your rick 4001.
