I like the conversion. Not really suitable for fingerstyle i.m.h.o., but I mainly play with plectrum. I do need another, my 4004 Cii BBR will get the same treatment. I allready have the 5 string Schaller bridge (in black). But I am not sure yet about where the tuners will be. I do not like them this way, and I also do not like the Rath way. I might prefer the conventional way even with some black holes in between in the end. Not sure yet........

Good one, Peter. I was trying to think of something along that line.

Hopefully you're lucky enough to still have the bass AND the girl, Scott!

I broke out my fretless '74 4001 and '62 B-22 Supersonic amp for last night's recording session. I'm finally done with bass tracks for the band's new album. All of my tracks were recorded with the B-22, but I used a Road Worn P Bass with flats for most of the songs, subbing a Charles Cote 5 string on one. I also doubled about half the tracks tic-tac style with a Fender Jaguar 6 string bass through a Fender Twin.
