Got one on the way, thanks to Ric5.

Anyone know where I can find one? POTR is out of stock. I'm installing a vvt Wilder harness and 3 chromies would look kewl.
Thanks!

Yes it will remain nekkid. Jonathan seems to be a good guy to deal with. It ships out toady.

Another one for the stable. As seen in Boyer's 1st ED, pages 134 & 135.
Oh yes....it will be mine!

Thanks for the reply guys! What would be a fair price? JPS.... yours is the kind!

Found one at Music Zoo and they're asking $2199.00 for it. This is what I have been looking for and I contacted the seller, as I don't believe it's under 7lbs. Any thoughts on the price? Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks much!

Recent acquisition from Bruce at Wildwood Guitars. '17 4003SW @ 8.5lbs, featuring a Tubeampology pup bezel, Pickguardian pg, home made trc and an oem bridge modded by Dane Wilder. Next mod will be a set of HB-1s and a Wilder harness......maybe even an unlined bloodwood fingerboard.

EB Cobalt flats are the best......long time chrome and EB flats user. Feel like flats, sound like rounds.

I'm a long time Fender user and have had my share of "OK" & bad necks....my current USA Jazz and RB-IV have one piece flat sawn all maple necks with graphite rods....a very stable neck, compared to the other Fenders I've owned.
My '14 4003 has 2 pc laminated 1/4 sawn neck that's a bit thicker than ...

Anyone consider the Gotoh GB-350 RES-O-LITES?

So I recently landed a used '15 4003S from TB. I installed a Wilder harness with the coil taps at both vol controls and a set of used HB-1 pups. I also strung her up with LaBella White Tapes and was really impressed with the sound of this bass. There are several usable & pleasing tones with this ...
