Man I want one of those but after I sold the 4001C64S and the Hofner Revolution bass I swore I would not buy another high priced bass. This one is killing me.

I'd love one of the new 4005 basses. Is there any worry of the exploding R tailpieces on these like I've heard so much about on the guitars?

I love the look of these and I've seen some modded 4004s posted in the past. If one was hanging up in a store it would be hard to pass up.

After the sneak peek of the new 4005 all I hear is crickets. Well ,I am the bugman

I still have the 4001 C64S that you pictured in your book. It may go up for sale one of these days but since I prefer not to ship anymore I just need a Nebraska McCartney fan with deep pockets

The bass is close but not as close as it could have been regarding the shaving of the horns and the finish.. I've seen a ...

Satin finish. Smooth Love it!

I don't know why i like the relics (as far as Hofners) so much as I do as I usually pretty much try to keep my basses in good shape. I think its just the McCartney thing ,with them looking like his does now,or close to it.

Hence the C64S ,although that is not dead on either. I usually need to ...

Moment of weakness. Common sense restored

Have the oppurtunity to straight trade my C64S for a Hofner Relic Cavern bass. Doubt i will do it but Hofners are my weakness. Also could get a Hofner V63 Relic but would have to add $300.00 to the deal . Talk some sense into me

With a bridge like that how does one tweak it if needed?
