I just received my brand new 4003 last week and I'm still not sure if I like the smell!!! I don't recall my 650 smelling as strong as that! Well I'm trying to get use to the smell... I fell asleep on the couch with the guitar, yesterday, and my wife didn't bother to wake me up... I think she's starting to be jealous...ha-ha-ha! Image

A 4003 and a 650 have entirely different types of finish and therefore smell entirely different.

Paul: RIC switching to Zymnol? I think you may indeed be out on the limbic.

It's my understanding that a 4003 and a 650 have entirely different types of finish. I just wish John Hall would weigh in on this...

So I must understand that the smell of my 4003 is different from my 650 because of the different finishes, Mr Hall Image ! I would go for the coconut in 4003 finish!!! LOL

There's ONE vote.

Yum, yum. Reminds me of a Hawaiian Tropic bikini contest at the Orange County Fairgrounds. It was about eight years ago, and I...

...never mind...

In Portuguese, "coco" is what you find in a baby's diaper after a nice hearty meal.

So I hope "CocoGlo" never sees the light of day, so to speak.

No ifs, ands, or butts on this one Paul.
