yeah really...if they made some kind of '72 reissue bass I'd be ALL over it.Seans wrote:Full widths and Walnut Wings all the reason I bought a 2010, could we see 1/2 inch Toaster, gap teeth and Checker binding next ?, although I think the introduction of later would be just too much for the factory, we can dream though.

I just scored a mapleglo 4003 (2010) on eBay. Not too bad of a deal. I'll post pics when I get it. I'm jazzed about the specs on the recent years models.
the inlays, wings, etc. are steps in the right direction (which is backwards, of course!) I agree, I want to see a toaster in the neck! Then, all will be right with the world. But, hard to complain with these 4003 specs.
