When I come out to SoCal I'm gonna take that thang back to the EC as a 4 string.

Don't do it!

I feel that if the bass is strung BEADG then the tuners should be 3/2 to reflect the extra B string; if it were EADGC then 2/3 makes sense.

I like the placement of the 4004 pickups further away from the neck, at least the bridge pickup, as it produces a very nice J Bass like growl and can do the Jaco burp sound very well. Ideally I think the placement should be neck pickup against the neck and the bridge pickup in line with the selector switch.

Will I also be a 4004 convert?...

A 4 string 4004 with current pickup position would round out the collection nicely...still want a Jetglo 5er. Maybe when the Cii5 goes back into production,
JETGLO should officially be renamed JETGLO ROCKS! :-)
