This is my newly bought 4004; the prettiest I've ever seen. It's got an amazing neck and sounds incredible. Unfortunately the contouring - rather ironically - is aggravating nerve problems in my right arm and so I may have to let it go.

I love natural maple so my 2011 4003 is mapleglo.

That sure is a pretty 4004, Henry5. I hope your arm issues clear up. If not please let us know if you put the beauty up for sale.
