Just arrived as a replacement for my faulty Jetglo, this Bass is the business fantastic E string which was lacking on the Jetglo!!! this is a nice bass lighter than the Jetglo too!!! i have bonded with it straight away just the right amount of figuring on the maple.

I have NO idea what to do with those skinny stringed things... I'm just a bass player...

Looks delicious, George!!! 8)

I love the look of the maple/walnut/maple sandwiched body.

Congrats. :)
Watch those teeth, Marlin. I'm not sure we've properly sedated the beast . . .

That's a beauty! Is that a one-piece neck? If not,it looks like they really matched the grain/color on it.

I was just wondering, what was wrong with your other 4004 George?

Hi Dane, two issues, the paint job had a fairly large flaw in the paint work on the main body also i could not get the E string to sound out properly after trying everything i know, i have set up many 4003's with dodgy E strings for other owners , but i could not shift the problem on the cheyenne!!! so was returned and this 4004cII was sent to me as a replacement . this particular bass was only made 6 weeks ago and is flawless sounds fantastic E string is night and day, so very happy with this one.
