I'm not planning on it but I'm more open to offers than ever. I haven't played it as much as I used to since I got my 4004's. We'll see!

Can you get enough tone out of your 4004s?

Mine sounded rather, hmm. Flat. Like an Aria or something, I couldn't get on with it.

I get all of the tone that I need Image.

They cut through great and have plenty of low end so I'm quite pleased. Around the time when I got the LK I also took a new approach to my amp settings and became more aggressive with my overdrive and BAM the tone I was after finally took shape. Unfortunately my two 4003's sounded thin compared to the 4004's so I went the 4004 route and haven't looked back since.
