Summer 1987, Red Bank, NJ a music store had a FireGlo 1964 4001 for sale for around $600, or maybe more.
Reno, Nevada, June 1991, a music store not too far outside of Reno had a mid-1960s FireGlo 4001 for sale for $900.
I had to pass on both. DIdn't have the cash.

Re: New Ric bass?
NOT a 4005 = NOT XXX5
short scale bass = 3XXX
short scale bass w/2 pups = 3XX1
360 shape = 360X or X360
Added together = 3361
short scale bass = 3XXX
short scale bass w/2 pups = 3XX1
360 shape = 360X or X360
Added together = 3361

Re: When was horsehoe pickup discontinued on 1960s' 4001 bas
Thanks again for the input. (I had the bridge pup cover removed. There was no horseshoe pup.) It was stolen out of my car around Dec. 79/Jan. 1980. When I dig further thru my papers I may find the exact date it was stolen and maybe more info. Why I thought it was a 1968 had to have something to do w...

Re: When was horsehoe pickup discontinued on 1960s' 4001 bas
Thanks for all the responses. Things still aren't making sense. I have a JG MD. I'm getting 13 1/8" across widest part of the bout, which cuts across the forward edge of the teeth of the bridge, BUT, the pickguard goes to the edge of the body by the jackplate. The body of the FG in my pics does...

So, here are a few pics after how many years? A decade?! Check trim, toaster, no tug bar, space between pup and pick guard, strip showing between pup and bridge, full length inlays. What year was it? Thanks!

Re: Groovy Beatles pictures
Thanks! So, another pup was added and a pup selector switch. What's the other switch (that all 620s/625s have) besides the jack?
Boy, I think I saw it at the R'n'R Hall and never noticed the updates...

Re: Deconstructing The Beatles
I saw the Sgt. Pepper film. Enjoyed it. He referenced the books "Recording The Beatles", "The Beatles: Recording Sessions", etc. and the isolated tracks available. Well done!

Re: Optima flatwounds 4440
I agree, I don't understand how some folks love that bridge cable feeling. Give me TI JFs any day. Well,i'ma haveta be Goldilox here,that's too far in the opposite direction for me.... 8) :lol: TI's would be great if they were just a tad....more. But that's why the old Maxima's are perfect. I agree...
