Yeah I saw that but I bet it's not so pearly white in person, looks like a washed out digital picture to me (something like i would do by accident)

i wish the white on mine would have stayed that white. i'm sure the flash helped it a bit, but it seems that it help up well.

yeah it's not blotchy and uneven but if I were going to bid on it I would want more pictures.

The best of both worlds: "vintage white" and "modern white":
Personally, I like the slight yellowing on my 1975 4001S WHT, kinda classy to me.

I agree Gary. The vintage white is appealing.

What year is your white 4003 Gary? That white is beautiful.

That one is a 1998 (N1 date code, February 1998). If you look carefully, you'll see that it still has the "Made In USA" sticker on the pickguard. It is very sweet!

What year is yours Jarad?

According to the Finish Time Line at Mike Parks' web site, 1999 was the last year for White. The guy I bought it from locally hardly played it.

I bought it from a private seller in 2002. I don't remember whether he told me where he bought it from, but we are in southern Callifornia, if that helps.
