Nothing quite like a 15-year-old thread that's back from the dead. Thanks, internet! :)

Why don't you just sell the T-bird outright, you will get far more money that way, then, go buy a 4000, and pocket the difference (your profit from the sale of aforementioned TB). :wink:
Where would I EVER find a 4000?????

Once you have cash in hand, you might get luckier than trying to trade your TB for one. Maybe.

Hi Paul! I must have an old email associated with this site. Having trouble finding where to change it. Hope you are well too, my friend! :D

Put me down on the list of those who love the old 50s 4000 basses!
And for that matter, I wouldn't mind a mint, unbroken '65 T bird! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
