I have to apologize for the quality of these pics. My Kodak digital is down, so I couldn't wait any longer to post some ****** Panasonic PhotoShot pics of my '67 4005/FG..
Recently acquired....She is named PJ..(Pride & Joy)

When I first opened the original case, 1967 came out.....it looked like this:

Very nice Chris! I love those old ones. Regarding the last pic, that this the way things look when all of the blood rushes away from your brain. It happens to me when I see attractive women- or really special Ricks.

Ted-
You read my mind! lol!!

The case REEKS of MOJO!

I can't put it down.....I love how light it feels and how "boomy" it sounds.....now I know what I've been missing.....

...can't wait to gig with it!!

Nice bass! Maybe I need to add that to "to get" list. You guys have totally corrupted me

Fantastic Chris!!! I hope it is all you expected and a whole lot more. We need an RIC confluence of 4005s!

Chris: When you get your camera working again could you send me a clear, full size closeup of the 3rd fret inlay?

Better yet, Chris, send me the bass and I'll photograph it for you!

Will do Ted....

Jeff: I'd be available for a confluence next spring! My wife and I are planing to come to Ohio for a week ...

Thanks Ron! There seems to be an quite an interest in these fantastic instruments!! Maybe JH will make these beauties available once again in the not too distant future....
