Took out my stereo cable that I've had for like 30 years. Put the bridge pickup through a Big Muff and my Fender Hot Rod Deluxe. Took the neck pickup and put it through my Markbass. I'm ready to tour

Although the JG is 2008, and one piece neck, I can hardly tell the difference between it and the two piece MID neck

Welcome back, Marc!

A bigger bass-side horn, 7-screw tailpiece, crushed inlays, toaster, horseshoe, wavy Grovers, checkered binding, a back-painted plexi TRC, and a thinner neck, apparently. Welcome to the forum Marc!!!

You forgot "No Binding"

Watcha going to do with them Marc, string one with rounds and the other with flats?

I've liked D'Adarrio chrome flats in the past. Right now, the factory strings just sound so good, I can't see messing with them. My theory is correct. Ric never made better basses than they do now. What a reception the MID got at a local Blues Jam tonight. Everybody loved it.

Now I bet the JG 4003 would be a smash at a séance.

I'm kicking myself for missing out on the MF deal. I hesitated too long

Gorgeous! That's a pair!
