funny how the oct '63 in the register has the lat '50's headstock design, yet the feb '63 has the mid '60's style...was the oct. forgotten under a bench ? wish there was a pic of the april.

Cool. Love them 4000 basses
What do you suppose happened to the finish on that one 4000? It's all funked-up.

If Mozart were with us today, he'd play a Fireglo 4001C64! ~~~*~~~ Beethoven, on the other hand, would play a Matte Jetglo 4001C64S!

IIRC, it had been the victim of a fire. So, what you see there is a true Fireglo finish.
