Baseplate Jeff?

Do the bridges still bottom out on these? I thought that went away with the Schaller bridges.

Still pondering it. Even talked with Chris a while back about it. I hope... I do hope there is a chance at a Ruby 4004Cii in the next few months. I need to reduce the gear before I acquire another one.

+1?? Baseplate?

Om by 4004 Cii the E & G strings are as low as they can go. The A & D are raised a bit. It's not a problem with the E & G since any lower and I'd probably be buzzing the frets all over the neck.

I like the bridge on the bass. Looks great and it's a breeze to intonate and set up.

I do really like the ruby color! I'm not in the market for one but if I were, I'd most likely opt for a 4003. Im not a fan of gold hardware. Shocked, I know.

Got a bunch of 4003 Rubies shipping next week. There will also be some Ruby Cheyennes and Laredos out maybe next week.

Keeping my fingers crossed it might be in that shipment.
