Beats the snot outta me! The feel of the neck on the fireglo was so completely different from other two - very thick. The MID I picked still has a thicker neck than my "willowy" '80 4001, but I'll get used to it, oh yes, most definitely. :)

Don't let that snot get all over the beautiful Mid B finish...

If the willowy, lithe, maiden-like neck on my '08 FG 4003 were any slimmer, it would have to be placed in a clinic for anorexic eating disorders...

After playing the beefy Laredo (ahhh. beef!) The 4003 is like sliding on ice with your drawers down-
(so I've heard...)







...Willowy! :lol:

Matt, wonderful looking MID bass you got there. I saw one at POTR during MARF and if I were to get a blue bass it would definitely be MID. Nice deep blue - in varying light it reminds me of the color of the sky from late dusk to deep night. Worth the wait, no?! :)

Larry, you just gotta get a camera - my daughter has a Fuji and they take wonderful pics with no effort. Something like one of these.

Agreed. Two/Three years ago my Dad hands me this cheesy magazine ad:

"Digital Camera/Video Recorder/Mp3 Player"
BlabBlaBla...
Piece of.....junk.
Good thing he doesn't use the phone etc. anymore to order stuff like this again.

Well, some people have a good camera and take good shots....

I'm curious... what's up with that? Are there more than one CNC "templates"?
