Nice! Love the way the peghead looks.
Do these come with checker binding now?

Right. It's the clearcoat, not the blue.
Same as "blacklighting" a vintage instrument to check for an original finish.

Looks great! Congrats!
Love the "S" basses!

Your Jet 4001 looks great!

Works for me!

Certainly a warning flag.

Yes, subway 15. I had intention of getting a Subway 2x10 to go with it, but never got around to it. I do still have an Ampeg SVT-210 cab that sounds fantastic paired with the 15.
Not sure why that one is sideways.

Pretty pricey for all the changes.

A few years ago I downsized to a Mesa Subway D800+ with a single 15 cab. My absolute favorite amp!
Unfortunately, I only got to gig it twice before retiring.

That sideboard is beautiful!

Ditto.

Ditto, Ditto

If it doesn't go all the way to the nut, it isn't the "classic" separation that's caused by incorrectly adjusting the rods or a drop. IMO

Could be dried out wood?

You would have to have one built.

I've read many people comment about the set-necks being punchier sounding. IIRC.
Not a bad thing in a bass.

4004 with nice character maple, J-bass pick-up positioning, nice '60's shaped neck, 3-ply laminated neck-through + peghead wings.
