I really hope the bass version is not just for 4003's, please make it available on the 4004's as well!

Brian, for some reasons which will be apparent, that's not going to happen.

Hmmm.

Hmm. Maybe the return of checker binding on the 4003?

No binding on a 650 either.......

If you're right Paul... let's just say I hope the wife understands,...

Paul, of all the pre-finishing operations at the RIC factory, adding checkerboard binding to any instrument would gum up the works more than anything else you can think of, short of custom-building a run of 4005s. So, I don't believe that is in the cards...

For what it's worth, the 650 is . . . what's the expression . . . a red herring? A wild cherry? Whatever.

So on the no 4004's thing, I guess that means there's a special pickguard in the works.....
