I called in my local Music Store on Saturday to buy some wall hangers - to my suprise they had a brand new 4003 Blue Boy on display ... I thought long and hard for about 10 nanoseconds then bought it !! It is BEAUTIFUL !!!

Hung on the wall of my studio (it was the front bedroom until last week!) next to my 4003 Jetglo - they look fantastic together !!

Bob, you do know that we really can't acknowledge the acquisition until you provide photographic evidence, right? ;-)

Is it a true blue boy or a blue-green boy?

Are there any true BB's?

Both of my BB 4004Ls are green boys.

Yes, I've seen a few. Seems that ones produced before mid 2005 are true blues.

Generally the admin pulls threads like this if no pics of the bass are posted

my BB is from feb2004 and it looks blueish
Anyway, I think it depends on the room lights you are into.... neons are not the best to appreciate blue boy finish
