I am seriously jealous Bernie. I used to have a white '72 (at least I think it was '72..it was old) 4001. Stupid me, I sold it to by a fretless p-bass, which I butchered...the stupidity of youth.

I would love to get a natural 4001 or 4003 some day.

So how many of us here have Ric basses? I have a walnut finish '74 4001.

I've got a red one, around late 70s vintage... nuthin' like a nice ol' Ric. Didn't see any Mellotron here, tho. Would've been fun, considering the obvious influences.
