I would love to know/hear who played the heck out of my 4005. There are no parts missing. She does not have a lot of dents and such. But the finish show a life full of action i.m.h.o..

Was that dragged across a stage by a broken string? How do you get long marks from neck to bridge? :?:

Like many things in life, the journey rather than the destination, is what really makes for interesting conversation. An old guitar is certainly no exception, and I always love to find out as much as possible about a piece I may own.

This forum has been a wonderful conduit for just that...

It would be very interesting to know the histories of my two 70s 4001 basses. Neither was mistreated, but both have been played.

I wouldn't want my Rick to be able to talk because I'm sure it would scream:
"Sell me! Sell me! You don't play well enough, you are not worthy!" :lol:

Good thread! I've often wondered who had my 4001 MG before me. I'd love to hear the story.
