If a tree falls in the forest, er, ...If a lick falls on a donut, but no one is there to see it licked, then how do they know it ever actually got a lick?

I'd like my 4005 to have the narrow inlays, solid white binding, raised-letter TRC, and hi-gain pickups... and I'd like it to be served in a sparkling silver gig-bag....
Oh, and I'd take the jelly...

I'd like my 4005 reissue to be a solid body with the shape of a 4004 and have 5 or 8 strings.Image

Okay, Tony, if there'd be more than three donuts, i'll grab some for you and yours, too. Image
BTW, if licking doesn't help, one can always use gentle biting into...

Are the glazed ones conversion varnish or nitro?

The answer is take the one you want. Since you don't know who has been there, or if the other guy who has no preference has been there, you're not sure if you'll even get a second one. Either break protocol and take two, or take the one you want and feel lucky if there is one later.

1. You affect a sneeze.
2. You blow your nose, carefully ensuring that you have noticeable amount of nasal residue on your fingers.
3. You move the doughnut you would like to eat later (with your hand) to get to the one you will eat now.
4. The doughnut you moved will still be there at the end, waiting patiently for you.

I don’t eat doughnuts.

@Mr Hall:
Couldn't you just run to your shed, then take some pieces of cheap plywood and construct the crappiest hollowbody bass-like thing ever? I mean really ugly, completely unplayable, nothing like a Rickenbacker. You wouldn't even have to put any pickups on it, or a neck. You can even forget about painting it. This wouldn't take more than ten minutes of your time. Then call it The 4005 Reissue and put it on sale for $9000. Just to prove you're right when you say: "It won't sell".

@ Everyone else: I'd really like to see a 4005 reissue.
