$2700?  Yeah, right. This bass can be had for about $1800 if you're patient enough to wait for another one to show up. |

Are the new Rics shipping in those silver cases? |

That's the vintage case. (Not so) funny story - Musician's Friend lists that case on their site, saying it will fit both righty and lefty Ric basses. The case pictured is a lefty case (with lefty bass inside!). I bought it, but what arrived was righty case - my lefty Ric wouldn't fit. After a little bit of confused defiance on their part, they took it back. |

Yeah, to clarify. They don't make a molded SKB style case for any lefty bass. It's just this one. My 4004Cii came with the same case and I had the same issue when I ordered a replacement case for my '77 4001. The first one the guitar shop got was right handed and I had to "prove it" to them that there was an actual "lefty vintage reissue case" before they took it back and ordered the right one. |

When looking at this bass in ebay, click "View Sellers other Items", he has a bunch of other stuff posted as well. This seller often has left handed basses posted on ebay normally at fair prices. I would agree this one is very high priced. If you look at his other stuff he has an 81 Right Handed Rick in Ruby Red for $1800 so his Rick prices are normally not high but for this bass I agree it's about $900 overpriced. All things said and done it really is a nice bass. |

jayceofbass, where'd you buy a lefty replacement case? I've been looking for one. Thanks. |

Um......  That looks like the one from "pick of the rick" that I got. I returned it due to financial issues. I bet this guy bought it. It was only 1800$. He's making a killing with that price and RIC are going to make the 2013 in Ruby Red as a standard... FYI. I talked to them at Winter NAMM.

Cool to see all of the comments so far, as I have no clue what the value of ANY Rick is... this is one of the reasons why I follow this forum's threads so closely... you guys are the best when it comes to knowledge and pricing on just about every bass out there that's available to lefties... left-on!

I'm guessing somebody across the pond bought it, since legit Ric dealers are not allowed to ship overseas. Oh well... as PT Barnum always said... Yeah, you know the rest.
