Thanks Brian. And congratulations to Steve. With so many nice photos there I lost track. These bases are certainly a thing of beauty.

These are certainly stunning works of art, let alone great musical instruments!

I was suprised at how light Brians LK felt when I held it...

After seeing the pics posted by Brian, you can certainly see the carving variations between each instrument. As Brian pointed out, the carving on mine is quite different from other examples we've seen.
Bob - could you posts some pics of your 4004LK's carving?
Mr. Hall - if Adam Page was the second carver chronologically, does it make sense that I've just received my 4004LK (carved by Page as you've said), whereas Brian received his last spring when his carver was Richard Seccombe (the fourth and most recent carver)? Is this just a production "quirk"? BTW I'm totally OK if my 4004Lk was carved by someone who went off the deep end!

Saturday is photo day. I will post sometime tomorrow. I'm also going to take the full 10-member Rickenbacker family portrait. Should be a fun time!

BTW, if anyone is unhappy with the carvings on thier Lemmy, I do know of someone willing to purchase them. They're willing to pay .50 on the dollar so it doesn't hurt much.

Please e-mail me for my address...I mean the person's address to mail the bass to.

Lemmy's pickup cover is empty? He must just use it for a hand rest.
That is some really nice carving!
