Sepp - Congrats!

The TV finish looks great - it reminds me of Korina wood, and the black hardware & ebony board really make it pop.
Looking forward to pix when you get her, and hope it brings you many years of enjoyment!

CJ,

I opted for the vintage case! Snow White came with a vintage case and I love it! I have the newer hard plastic case that my 2011 4003 came in and while it seems like a nice case for shipping purposes, the vintage case rocks in every other aspect. IMHO! :D For me, that was a no brainer!

New fotos will be posted once she arrives, has been thoroughly mauled, and then wiped free of drool!! Oh and before my wife hits me over the head with it!! :lol:

WAHHH HA Ha!! :lol: Good one! Thanks brother, now that's funny!! Ya gotta remember, I normally intercept my deliveries on the road so all the local guys know to deliver my shipments on a satin pillow!! :lol: If the "chucklehead" he got it from mistreated it and the box is damaged, I think the delivery man would be smart to go home for the day, sick. Playing ring and run would not save them, I may not be the fastest but I am relentless!! :lol:

BTW.....congrats on the score as well! Once I got my LK (my first 4004) my 4003 Rics took a back seat and I eventually sold them off......not saying you'll have the same reaction but I hope you are smitten with it.

Brian,

Thanks! That is what i hear about the 4004's. I'll let you know. It's a busy week around here. My Blackstar arrives home tomorrow after spending the last 12 weeks vacationing with Paul W. and getting a full makeover. :D

Right now I'm like a kid in a candy store when I go to grab a bass to play. Each one is different sounding and unique and I like certain basses for certain songs. Right now my 2011 4003 is the most versatile and can do everything well. If the 4004 becomes my "go to bass", my 4003 will become my BEAD strung bass. Yeah, I know I said the same thing about my Shadow but I just could not do it. It just plays too well at EADG. Like I said, a kid in a candy store. We should all have that dilemma, right? :D

OH MY! Guess what just arrived?? The sealed box is sitting in my living room while it acclimates. I'm cursing myself for not keeping those comic book X-ray glasses I had when I was a kid!!! :D

The box is in great shape. No signs of being thrown over a fence, Brian!!! :lol: :lol:

Oh no, that's not a problem for Graham. It's his fiancee's name that he has trouble recalling. :lol: :mrgreen:
JETGLO should officially be renamed JETGLO ROCKS! :-)
