I'd probably have a different pickguard ready and waiting for the bass to get to my house, but I really like that 4001. A touch steep, I think, but that all depends on condition and it looks relly nice.

The Ruby Red might be $$$$ because it's an L/E color.

Very nice basses! I have always thought it bad business by all the dealers not post prices and add their dreded "CALL."

I've never really understood the strategy behind the term "Call". Does anyone? I make a point not to call!

Ha ha! Good one, Ron! It's a dealer thing. They don't want other dealers having easy access to their pricing for whatever reason. Stupid for the customers though. Oh thats right -- we don't count!

There was another blood red 4001 on Gbase when I was looking, I think the price was around the $1300 mark. That red is gorgeous, my 4008 Redneck is (obviously) in that color and boy does she look amazing!
