Welcome Dave, beautiful bass, nice catch. How did you snag this beauty?

When you play out, what kind of rig are you running her through?

Welcome Dave! Watch out for a certain bodybuilder, who lives in the same town you do, he may grab that bass from you.

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone. I used to lurk around here until financial circumstances forced me to sell my 360/CW, 381v69, 360 Ruby, 4003/s5 (Sea Foam). Well now that I am working again I figured a 4004LK was a nice subtle way to start my Rick collection back up. I have a 360 in Blue Burst on order as well.
J Gary was asking what kind of rig I use. I am using the crappiest setup you can imagine while I try to piece together the dough for a decent head to power my eden cabinets (1x15 and 2x10). It's a 15 year old Peavey TKO with ALL the control knobs broken off. I use a sans amp to make it sound something like a real amp. It gets the job done in small clubs but it sure will be nice to get a real amp again!
The 4004LK has SO much signal from those 3 pickups - it would sound good through just about anything.
Later!

Subtle way to start?

About as subtle as an A-bomb! Welcome aboard... what kind of heads are you looking into?

Dave, you had an s5 in sea green?

Do you have the address of the person you sold it to? A couple of forumites might want to visit it, make sure it's in good hands...

Marc - Count me in on that visit! Aquiring Sea Green Rics is my weakness/sickness...
And welcome to Dave and his 4004LK! Interesting that yours is #26, whereas I got mine a couple of months before you, (also from Mike Parks), and it's #30.

Hey, Steve Wood! No more Sea Green for you! You gotta spread 'em around a little!

But I've got a monkey on my back man!
Just wait till I get my 4004LK refinished in Sea Green! (ducks)

Yes - I had a 4004/s5 in Sea Green. Talk about rare. I think there were only a few made. That was and is a great bass. I would buy it back in a second if I had the chance!!
I am thinking of getting an Ashdown head. Haven't decided yet on the model.

Ken - I'm not falling for that one. You just want to track down the Lemmy bass. I live in the apartments back by the reservoir behind Warren Elementary. I live here with my 3 hungry pit bulls (I think one might have rabies, I'm not sure) and spend most of my spare time cleaning my guns. I'm about a mile south of that rib joint, but I have never eaten there.
If you want to check the Lemmy out in person I'll be gigging it on the 20th with my band.

Nice response to Ken, Dave!!!
