Yeah, I saw that one a couple of days ago. It's a great-looking and certainly desirable 60's 4001. Just one question: where's the thumbrest? Isn't any mid 60's 4001 supposed to have one?

Is this really a 1964? If so, has it been refinished/restored?? There are some things that don't add up here.....

...maybe a new pickguard installed along the way??

Hm... Yes, maybe. I could be wrong, but that pickguard appears to be of recent manufacture.

Haha! Yeah.
Could someone please lower the action on that 4001? Thank you.

GIVE it to me and I'll fix it. Of course, you'll never see it again! ;<)
