The 4004Cii Mapleglo Picture Thread

[cjj]

Hey, I had to do something interesting for my 1000th post.

Anyone else have some nice pics of their 4004Cii MG to share?

Here's my new one, should be "home" in a couple of days:

Congrats on the purchase!

Wowsers! You're not actually going take that work of art out of its case and play it and get it all smudgy and funky, are you?

Stunning!

Yeah, well, as I mentioned in another thread, the 4003MG just didn't "do it" for me. I actually considered for a while, hacking the body wings off and making new ones out of some really nice figured maple I've got, but I just didn't like the neck, feel or looks (lots of dark mineral streaks). Anyway, I figured, why do all that work on a bass I really didn't like, so it went back to the dealer.

Then I saw that 4004 and thought, do I really need another 4001/4003 type? Maybe it's time for a change...

[cassius987]

Sorry, I haven't been following threads very well. Your 4004 looks neato.

wowsers!! that tiger striping makes my cii,which i think is beautiful,look SO very plain......with the lack of other ornamentation on these,the figured tops are almost a must.....certainly ups the cachet... THAT one looks like a boutique bass!! i will post a pic of mine later when i recover.....
