HAHAHA!!!

The fallout from that comment should be fun.
So, as the first of the Gang of Three to respond, I claim one of the two "all man" spots! :lol:
I would think Biscuti gets the other. :wink: :twisted:

I missed this one, the holidays and all.
The only pic of my '67 4005MG I have here at work.
****** pic quality, but at least the guitar is seeing some action!

1/2 offtopic, but a lot of people on a dutch bassguitarists forum really liked this picture so I guess some of you guys will appreciate this also.

Is that a refinish or was that offered as COY?

Kenny had his 4005 refinished at the factory. He not only "knows" someone there, he IS someone there! I believe he had them use the Trans Green color used on Cheyennes (4004Cii), but applied a little heavier to darken it.

That photo that Bert posted is a 4005 in Walnut. Pretty rare!
