.....anyway, the real deal is that we will be seeing a Frying Pan bass in the future.

The only thing that wasn't guessed until now is a MMT 4001c64.RIC_FACTORY wrote:I hear Bismark is beautiful in February!
Nobody has nailed it thus far by the way.
(4006 does sound cool though... Perhaps a 381 bass?)
What do I win?

Sure glad I didn't!RIC_FACTORY wrote:Nobody has nailed it thus far by the way.
What about a short scale bass ala the 650 guitar?

I'd be cool with a 4006 but I'd probably throw toasters into it. The stock 4002 pickups sound sooo good and I don't really think the HB1 would make a good replacement if you were going for any closeness to the original.

I'm surprised that with all the ideas thrown out that no one's gotten it so far. Once you've guessed 4005,4002,V68 4004/5 string....I mean, where can you go from there?

I think that a 4003 light show is a good guess - Paul W is making/has made one...

4004 WB?
Return of Black hardware?
Paul offering acoustic basses?
4003 5 string (though I don't imagine much rejoicing on that.)
