Jeff, aren't the 650 series basses just 4004s with control plates? Image


New bass? Where?

I don't think there's a new bass model planned for anytime soon.

Whew, my wallet just took a sigh of relief!

Jeff, that bass on the left, the horn showing sure looks like the one I posted - when I zoomed your pic even the grain looked similar.

Love that body style for a bass, but I bet it's a neck diver. Would make a cool short scale. With flats and a pair of toasters!

I don't know. I still think that nothing comes close to the classic outline of the 4000 Series basses.

Yeah, but the classic 6 series body would be one fine looking bass.
As an alternative.

The guitar design that I'd like to see as a bass is the 381.

John, it can't be the same bass; look at the different cutouts below the neck, the one you posted has two vs. only one on the bass in the Rittor '(b)mook'.
