If I lived in the US I would buy this and fill it one day, but I live in the UK. So it's all yours...

isn't that just a regular vintage reissue case? I doubt it was made specifically for a 4005 but I'm no expert...

A 4005 will not fit the 4001 series cases, as a 4005 is a more manly bass. Image

Damn,
I hate waking up to things like is.
I need one for my '66.
Oh well, I guess my ameritage custom will have to do. Plus it has a humidity control system and digital hygrometer.

But still, something about a 4005 in a RIC silver case does it for me.
The search continues.

How about two 4005WBs in silver RIC cases?

The JG is mine and the FG is Chris Pappas'! Image

BTW, they are only seven numbers away from each other.

How about another 1967 4005 in its silver/blue case, but this time in Mapleglo Image

Do you mean you have it but just can't find it?
