The Blueburst is finally here!!

We now have to change the saying to:
"freakin' awesome things come to those who wait".
I'd play a Rick regardless of what the neck profile was, but a nice thin one just makes it that much better!
I think that's the best BlueBurst I've seen yet.

Rock on

I just talked with Steve on the phone ... he love the sound ... he says it growls ... then when he kicks in the capacitor it has clank ...

I may well have to do that mod on my '77... now where'd I put that damned capacitor?

Awesome looking axe.... I love the bluebursts... I ordered both 4003 and 4003FL. I'm getting very impatient...

Blue is not my favourite color, but this is really a beauty.
If you could record some soundclip to demonstrate the vintage tone selector, please do

That's a great idea. Probably not too many owners of new 4003s here (yet). I'd love to hear the difference too.

I'll see if I can record something played with it and without it. Lord knows I am playing it enough! My home studio is kinda ripped apart at the moment, but I might be able to get something for you.

Steve, that's one of the nicest I've seen, congratulations! Is it a trick of the camera or is there a hint of green in the shading? Whatever it is, I hope that my Cii looks as nice.

Wow....just saw the pics, Steve....

That is one BEAUTIFUL BBR bass! As a long-time admirer of Blueburst, I think I can honestly say that that is the BEST one I've seen yet.... SWEET!

Congratulations!

Wow, that finish is fantastic. Kinda looks like my MB towards the outside, but hopefully doesn't have the bleeding problem.

Ah, how I miss having white binding!

Thank you everyone, I'm loving it, totally. In a few hours I get to run it thru my stage rig and am really looking forward to hearing it LOUD!
