Not sure if any are headed up there. I can't imagine Steve's or L&Mc wouldn't have any on order.

I was VERY TEMPTED, but I couldn't wait for my 4004cii any longer, and went for the Trans Blue.

I have to admit, it is one of the few solid colors I like. It really POPS with the white trim on the 4003. 8)

I'm in the on-deck circle for a 4004 cii RBY from Chris at POTR!!! :D

Any thoughts on what strings to put on it :?:

I play 99.9% of the time with a pick. A bit like the Macca before he heard "Pet Sounds".
Watch those teeth, Marlin. I'm not sure we've properly sedated the beast . . .

I have TI Jazz Flats on mine, sounds very '60s with some grind if played aggressively with a pick.

I have D'Addario Chromes on my 4004Cii FG. A pick with some palm muting nails the McCartney sound.
