Belated response - bought a red SR from Tom - packaged really well and exactly as described. More than pleased George

Now the happy owner of a red Ryder, thanks to Tom! Will re-string it over the coming weeks. Now have a patriotic Ryder trio - red bass, white Tele, blue Strat... all exceptional value for money. I know the guitars have come in for some criticism but so far I'm pleased with all of them. George

[quote name='apa' post='1180395' date='Mar 29 2011, 07:19 AM']Hi George Back in the heady days when these were available I dont think they did a red one. Although Im not 100% sure. Your best bet is to do like us and pop down Halfords and buy a can of your favourite red and have some fun making it your Ryder. There are a few still available in shops scattered around the country and one or two on here in the Basses for Sale section.

[quote name='tom1946' post='1180396' date='Mar 29 2011, 07:28 AM']I have one if you're interested.[/quote] I was hoping to locate one though SR shops are relatively few and far between in my part of the world. So, indeed, I may be interested... Have a white Tele and blue Strat so might like to make the hat-trick! George

Anybody seen a red, rosewood 'board bass in an SR shop recently? George
