karlfer Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 (edited) 4003s is the easier one to play fingerstyle, no binding, no sharp edges to rip your wrist. Lacquered fretboard (now discontinued). V2 bridge, massive improvement imo. Vintage tone pot (I don't like!). Case & candy. Weight 9lb 20z nut 42.4mm One main chip, a few smaller ones, this bass gets gigged. Mods. Rickysound vintage TRC in black. Rickysound black plate Hosco Jazz style rotary knobs Retrovibe pickup surround with thumb hole (I was going to spray that black but.............) All original parts included, all mods easily undone. New Superbrights 35-95. Very nicely set up, it's actually a joy to do with the V2 bridge. I will do my best to remove my DNA that the photos show 😊 Collection from Darlington, half way meet or organise/pay for your own courier. Thanks for looking, Karl.

prowla Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Nice bass! Doing the treble surround black would set it off nicely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cat Burrito Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Coincidentally I did the same pickup surround, TRC and pickguard mods on my 4003. Mine is my main bass and I love it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
