If you have need for just the bridge to go with a tailpiece you get in the future, I have a Rath version of the bridge here that I have never used.cjj wrote:Oh I should mention, this is for an upcoming project to turn a 4003MG into a 4003MG BT, probably a 5 string, but not completely sure yet.

Re: 7-bolt BT bridge on eBay
Hmm, I may be interested in that. I was actually thinking about making my own, with a few interesting ideas I have for improving adjustability, etc., but having one to get going might be nice too.qwezirider wrote:If you have need for just the bridge to go with a tailpiece you get in the future, I have a Rath version of the bridge here that I have never used.cjj wrote:Oh I should mention, this is for an upcoming project to turn a 4003MG into a 4003MG BT, probably a 5 string, but not completely sure yet.
And Paul, I am interested in that scratched tailpiece you've got, I sent you a PM just in case you didn't check your messages.
And, I saw that RIC shipped another 4003MG to my dealer today, so, my new Rick is definitely on it's way!
I have NO idea what to do with those skinny stringed things... I'm just a bass player...

Oh, definitely! It's only been on order since March 2007, I'm sure it'll be worth the wait!johnallg wrote:Pics when you get it! Gotta love the MGs.cjj wrote:And, I saw that RIC shipped another 4003MG to my dealer today, so, my new Rick is definitely on it's way!![]()

Then, the mods begin...

Re: 7-bolt BT bridge on eBay
That's the donor for the BT mods and possibly turning into a 5-string! It may well indeed end up with CB, and will definitely get black binding. I sure wish I could have ordered it that way, but, ah well...johnallg wrote:cjj wrote:Oh, definitely!

What mods?? All it needs is CB and 70's pups or a magnet shoe horsey.
I've already got a decent '76 Azureglo 4001, a fantastic '84 Mapleglo 4003, but I've always wanted a 5-string 4003 (I really like the binding). And my favorite is Mapleglo with black binding and hardware. I most certainly will not do this to my '84 4003 even though it has the most wonderful maple I've ever seen, that would be sacrilege! But a brand spanking new one? Well, what can I say, at least it's not a classic yet even though it's gone up in value a whole lot since I ordered it...
