'73 higain?

I bought a used 4004 and it came with a higain in the bridge. The seller told me it was a '73.

I want to put Hb-1's in my bass and have no use for this higain. Elys Rand, upon hearing it was a '73, contacted me to buy it, but I was hesitant to sell since I had no idea how to know for sure if it was a '73.

Hence, I defer to the experts.

HERE I AM!
A 1973 high-gain, eh? And how about making this seller swallow that "1973 high-gain"?...
That's a modern 4003 neck high-gain, period.

No problem, John

Nice Mac, though

I wish! It's been outdated since the 2nd week I owned it.

Don't feel bad, John, thats true for any computer!

I know what you mean! In Feb 2001 I ordered the top of the line G4, a single-CPU at 733 MHz, with 23-inch Cinema flat-panel. Not three or five months later, this was now the lowest-end Mac G4, and then the dual-CPU G4 and then G5 came out

I also bought two PB G4 500Mhz then, both top of the line. In no time flat later in 2001, the 667 and 833 (? number?) were out, and then all three were obsolete

The 23-inch Cinema display still looks good though, six years later

Whats the DC resistance on that pickup John?

Heck if I know. Don't have a multimeter here or any sort of testing tools. Unless it's written on the wire or something. Then you can put the dunce cap on me.

That pickup should read roughly 11 K.

OK, John, it's a sale. Private email sent. Thanks
