Jeff,

By dimensions what do you mean? Pup heights the Walnut 4002 is at either 3 or 3.5 mm. While the two are 4002's, they differ a bit in many ways. Tail piece location, and neck to name a few. The tail piece on this bass is moved approx 1/4 inch toward the headstock in comparison to the walnut 4002. The neck sits a little higher on this bass as well. By that I mean the neck is approx. 1/8th on an inch higher in pane than the body. The walnuts neck and body are both in the same plane with only the fretboard sitting above that plane.
