Here is a closer image of my modified 4003
That's essentially what I did with my '74 4001 (pup wise). If yours doesn't have it (I can' t remember when they were issued) you might consider a push pull pot for the cap bypass... can be quite dynamic. That is a sweet looking bass!

Thank you woodyng. It really worked out well and is a very "different" tone!

Right. It does have the push pull pot- I was amazed at the additional tonal ranges, and quite readily use them when I play.

You have her fitted out like my '04, your bass' doppelganger, mine being MG. What strings do you use. This one has NOS RIC/Maxima flats on it.

Thanks- I was actually inspired to go to a local guitar shop that has 2 4003s on the wall (unmodified)---and wow. I really think that although they sounded great, I really like my tone more.
