But me love 4003s as well. My 4003FL and both 4003s are INCREDIBLE, just in a different way from a 4002. Maybe I could part with one of the 4003s... not both.
That's what sucks... the freakin' vintage status of this thing. But a 4002 is worth every penny, really.
##$^@&%$*!!!
I don't have a big music budget like some people, and if I had >$4000 to spend I'd definitely give it to a boutique dealer like Conklin rather than a vintage bass that is super inflated. The 4002 may be the ONLY exception to that rule, magnificent beast that it is.

I believe that a deal is in place ... very excited about this one. Hopefully way more to come soon!
Anyone want to buy a '64 p or jazz? Or a 4004? Or my Jan '73 4001? Ha.

Yeah, my salary isn't very much as a doctoral student.
Then again I'm not paying tuition... It beats being the chemistry lab technician for $8.50 an hour, too, and it REALLY beats being a CPhT at Walgreens! Ugh... they don't pay those poor souls enough. At least I've gotten out of that madness.
Well, maybe in 4-5 years I can afford a 4002. But by then they'll cost twice as much right?

If it helps, I was a doctoral student a mere 5 years ago.

Yeah, being a doctoral student is a pain, but you'll get through it! And it'll be worth it, believe me...

Unfortunately yeah.
I hear ya on student salary - my daughter and her fiancee are both doctoral students on research salaries with free tuition but there is not a lot of wiggle room with their finances. That's what prompted my tease.

With all the "global weirdness" going on regarding weather in the world, that might happen sooner rather than later.
