New 4003
Posted: Sat Jun 17, 2006 1:48 pm
After my failed Cheyenne experiment, and with my 4003 leaving for Dale in a few days, I needed a bass and decided to go with something familiar yet new - a 4003MG.
I have never had a Mapleglo Rick before and I decided now would be a better time then ever to get one - the walnut wings!
Pics:
The first thing I did was "toast" it, followed by putting a set of Chromes on.
My '06 and my '99.
Who's David?
Love those walnut ears!
The VTS is cool but I don't know how often i'll be using it - a capped 4001 bridge pickup is not really a useful tone for me. I ordered a set of vintage knobs and a clear finger-rest from Pickguardian, and will definitley take more pics when she's all dolled up.
Also, I noticed that these inlays are much more "sparkly" than my '99 - I suppose RIC switched to a different formula to achieve a more vintage look?
