And yes, I do not believe the 4000 (one pickup) basses ever had the capacitor inline. That is a 4001/3 item.

As far as I know, that is correct. No bass-cut cap in the 4000's.

Yipes, I love yours too!

Wow!

Wow! Gorgeous bass, Rod. And that's a sweet looking 4000, Jeff! Not often I see a straight red like that.

Indeed! The best version of "Amber Fireglo": Fireglo plus 40 years of patina!
