I guess all other necks seems slim compared to a Steinberger L2!johnallg wrote: I've got a Nov. 2004 4003 MG and the build quality was indeed superb. The neck is, um, a full one, but it is soooo stable. It does not bother me in the least. If I decide to convert a bass to 8 strings, this one gets the nod.
Congrats on having 4 now.
I really like the kind of narrower P-bass feel of this particular 4003 (as far as the profile is concerned).
You are right about stability. This is the first Rickenbacker that I receive after a long trip to Australia that did not require a truss rod adjustment.
