"It was all fingerprinted before he put it away"

That happened when the struggle occured - evidently you didn't want to give it up! (1st pic)

Jerry, that's great to have that kind of friendship. Good for you! Cool story. You guys rock!

He's always been a good pal, and he puts up with my screechy singing voice.

The 4003 gets it's stage debut tonight!

So - How did it go?!!!

Bass sounded great. Got a bit loud in the lower registers, he's still getting used to it. A lot more bling factor, too. It's shiney.

What was he using before the 4003, Jerry?

shamustwin · Post by **shamustwin** » Tue Oct 10, 2006 12:11 pm

My Alembic, and way long ago he was playing my 4001.
'Bout time he had his own guitar, eh?

Only if he buys a 4002 or 4005!

Thin neck, very comfortable (played it for the first time last night).

Woo hoo! Jerry, how does it compare to the neck on your 4005? Since I've played that, it will give me a reference.

I didn't A&B, so from memory I'd say a tad wider than the 05 but pretty close in depth (front to back).

A very nice profile, and waaay better than the early '80's I used to have.

Easy to play to be sure!

I think fans of both bigger and smaller necks will be pleased.

My former fat neck.

Sounds like a winner - I was amazed at how narrow the 4005 neck was, and the front to back was just right. So the new profile should be spot on, IMHO. Sounds like it's time for a trip north to GR to check one out.
