Re: Is it happening? A new 4005?!

I hope they will be available in Europe also, but can not find them on any mayor site (yet?).

Looks nice. Pity it doesn't have a neck pickup, but only two pickups in bridge position. ;-)

Same with inlayed fret lines.
Aren't they easier to level than sharkfin inlays? I did not know this and am glad I prefer unlined. :-)

Re: 4003fl with shark fins

Over time the height of the inlays might differ a little with the wood next to it. You do not want that on a fretless.

Re: 4004cii/5

There could be a solution for my Mapleglo. JH gave me a new 4003S/5 pickup cover to see if it will adequately cover the 5 strings. I think it will work well. I need to find a guitar repairman brave enough to make the new pickup routes. I'd do it myself, I've routed several bodies, but from what I'v...

Re: 10 years ago!

Yeah - very curious about that. That's a factory 4004Cii/5 I assume? Yes! Really like the middle one. Is that transgreen I'm seeing? Yes! Mine has the known issue some off the 13 4004CII/5 basses can have unfortunately. B and G have lots less volume than the middle three strings. Still someone must...
