Took it out tonight for the big test run and i must say its without a doubt the finest 4003 i have ever had ! The tone is awesome ! The pickups for some reason arent harsh and farty . They have a wonderful smooth tone . The neck is to die for as well . No hand cramping when playing the first few frets . Thanks John Hall for listening. Also i would like to publically thank MR. Mike Parks for being a straight up and informative cat . And also for putting up with my million phone calls lol. Mike you rock !! Thanks alot Man

"I dont have calipers so i cant get technical with it but"

Jeffery, do you have any really thick solder? On the spools that is?

If you could cut 2 pieces, roughly 5 inches long, and carefully wrap each around the back of the neck at, say the 5th fret if you are comparing necks, then photograph the solder pieces on a white piece of paper. It wouldn't be as precise as calipers but would that would illustrate the profile of the neck at least.

I'll see if I can do the same for my 4003 and 4001.
