Re: HB1 or Bardens in 4003?

Well, on that tip, I'm in Chapel Hill, NC. Anyone know someone in the area to do the work that knows Ricks? I know a guy who I think does good work, but I don't know how many 4003s he's seen.

Hello all,
So, I have a much-loved 2006 JG 4003 that simply will need different pickups. The reason is twofold:
