Is it just me or are the E and G strings on the turquoise put on wrong? Nice looking bass though!

Dane, if I had that 4080/12 I'd be playing Xanadu too. I hope the guys in that Rush tribute are good enough to play Xanadu. What's wrong with Canadian rock?

My son strings his bass up somewhat whacked like that...

Hey, are the strings on? Do they hold tune? Just might be a little confusing for someone not used to it to try and tune it, but anyone with 1/2 an ear should be able to figure it out quickly.

Nice looking 4003, btw, and it is a good photo!

hey, i'm left handed in a right handed world. cut me a break man.

funny thing is, i don't even know what you mean by strung up wrong. the right strings are in the right slots and it's always in tune. maybe i'm an idiot savant, or maybe just a regular old idiot.
but thanks for the compliments fellas. that turquoise color doesn't always photograph well from pictures of others i've seen, but that one seemed to come out just swell

Joseph, you'll figure out how to post pics, it's actually easy as long as the picture is small enough in size. It took me a while to figure out posting pics here. When I finally realized how to do it, I felt like a bonehead because it was so easy.

Here is a link to help you install your strings correctly:

I hope it helps you.

thanks for the link joey. i guess i've been stringing basses wrong for the last 12 years. maybe if i read that page 20 more times, it'll start making sense.
