Yes indeed it was a very good thing that they didn't use George's hair-style in that photo. He almost looks like Stan Laurel.

Yes, but it's quite a popular hairstyle today.

Are there any pictures of when Paul was presented with the 4001S?

this isn't it but.....
1965: 1964 Rickenbacker 4001S-LH bass (Fire-glo); Serial #DA23: When he gave Harrison and Lennon guitars in February '64, F.C. Hall, the head of Rickenbacker, also tried to give McCartney this bass, one of the first left-handed Rick basses, a line so new that it was equipped with a right-handed headstock. For some reason, however, McCartney passed on this instrument. But the following year, during the band's U.S. tour, Hall's son John had the honor of giving it to McCartney. " I presented the bass personally to Paul at the home they had leased for the Hollywood Bowl show (30 August '65), not at the show," Hall recalls. "This home was up on Curzon Terrace, which I guess would be in the Hollywood Hills. [In fact, it was Burt Lancaster's house.] Also present besides the Beatles and their keepers were Roger McGuinn, Peter Fonda and Joan Baez." Harrison recalls its first use on "Think For Yourself" (8 November '65). It served as a backup for live dates in late '65, and for the '66 tours, but in terms of recording, by the time the band made "Paperback Writer" and "Rain" in the spring of '66, the Rickenbacker had become McCartney's bass of choice. He used it liberally on Revolver, and, late that year, for "Penny Lane" and "Strawberry Fields Forever," and for the rest of the Sgt. Pepper sessions. For the release of that album, McCartney gave the bass a psychedelic paint job (as did Harrison and Lennon to their guitars), and used it that way on record and in videos until late '68.
