Nice flame!

I'm really glad to see some experimental work being done on the 4004cii.

It looks more MONTY than a Walnut, but STILL my FAVORITE color scheme.

I really hope some of you 4003 guys would give these a try.

I can't wait to try the new neck profile! Even with the old neck profile, I miss my Blueburst.
As fate would have it, OLIVIA"s now has my very bass on Ebay.

It really is such a versatile bass, just like a Pbass on steroids with some classic RIC tones thrown in to boot.

Really really LIKE! love that brown halo/fade into MG.
+1 to what Tony said, 4004's are fantastic basses! I've got 2 of 'em with the older neck profile,they are just the best! And the pickups do allow for wiring flexibility,so you can easily make a stock bass even more tonally versatile.

Nice!


Says it has the one piece neck with the old profile...

Kind of resembles this 4004Cii Monte Brown from 2004, though the color shading is a bit different (Your Monitor/Camera/Lighting May Vary) and the one-off appears more flamed: http://www.rickresource.com/register/vi ... lebrity%3D

It's nice looking' and I'm glad to finally see a 4004 get the one-off-factory-treatment. Too similar to a Monty Brown for me to pry my wallet open however.

While the finish and maple are definitely nice, I think pickups in the 4002 position with VVT wiring and coil taps would really push the 4004 concept to new ground.

I agree. I believe the 4002 pup placement was based on the J bass, hence to attract J bass players. The mod Dane originally did on my former 4004L (and now Woody's) really offers great tonal flexability. In addition to my Rics, I have two Hamer Cruise basses, their body and pup placement are J based. While very different in many ways than my Rics, the tone they create is nice and offers versatility with the separate volume for each pup.
