That is one hell of a special bass Kenny. IMHO the balance between covering the surgery on the front and keeping the grain in the wood at the back is spot on. I LOVE IT

Without thinking, I was going to ask if Paul or Dale had refinished it for you. Then I remembered where you work. Duh!

Very, VERY cool bass and I love the colour too!

Speaking of where you work, and not that the service would be offered to the public, but was all that route repair and refinishing done by in-house talent? What a great after-hours 'government' project!

Congratulations Kenny.

The neck pickup is a flat-back toaster wound to something ridiculous like 17k; the bridge pickup is a '90s toaster (14k) that I had in my parts box. Sounds like THUNDER through an SVT.

I bet it does and I guess that we can expect to see it on a 2008 RickResource calendar.

Stunning! I bet it's even better in person!

Wish we could have made the back lighter. Ah well.

Maybe next time

So were any other colors tossed around before you settled on this one?

I think Blueburst would look great on a 4005.

It WILL, Scott - Edgar Aldrett is having his '66 4005WB done in BBR by Dale.
