Re: McCartney's Original 4001S Pick-Guard Crack

Just found out that it was actually Maxwell's Silver Hammer that caused the crack. It fell off of a table and made that crack. Paul wasn't even rattled. It was a free bass and it didn't effect the sound. :lol:

McCartney's Original 4001S Pick-Guard Crack

Probably just another really dumb question, but gonna ask anyway. Ever since I saw my first ever picture of Paul's Rick (MMG album), I have always wondered how or why he got and kept that nasty crack on the lower side of his pick guard. I have pictures of it less than a few months old, still in ...

VF 1590. Just to let you know, my knowledge of the 4001 is substantial and I can certainly explain every minor detail in the flaw or inacurate reproduction of the 4003SB. The entire deisign is 100% innacurate. It doesn't even have the headstock wings, and the two horns are overly wide and large. The ...

Re: The B models

Hi,
Just rejoined the forum. I have a 4003SB, know everything there is to know about them, the inaccuracies, the good and the bad. I still gig with it and it is in pristine condition. I believe I own one of the first sold throught Maddy"s in NYC. I got it the minute it was shipped. It is more of a ...
