Just wondered how you rate the Maple against the black 4001/3 you have ? I have found the 4003's from the late 80s to be a bit more chunky around the neck than later or earlier models.

Tell all please[/quote] I've only played the Maple a couple of times and used it at rehearsal a few nights back. It was lovely to play and sounded better that my Jetglo. I put some Elixir strings on the Jetglo after liking them on my six strings but they really don't seem to work with the Ric. Not sure what strings were fitted when I bought it last year..? The strings on the Maple are pretty mellow too but I can't ID them. As for the chunky neck, I can't say I've noticed but both my 4003s are very comfortable and easy to play with my medium sized hands. Might ave to check out the differences now tho... My problem is that I love the look of the black and white over the maple and black so despite prefering the way the Maple sounds I'll be sticking with the Jetglo.. and yes... I really am that shallow... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarky Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 Hey Mr Legoheads - I have the same bass minus the black pickup cover. Asa favour to this Forumite, I would really appreciate if you could ask your buyer if he wants the p/u cover - if not I would willingly buy it off him. Cheers Clarky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Legoheads Posted June 21, 2008 Author Share Posted June 21, 2008 I wasn't super keen on the colour scheme when I bought it... but that black on maple has grown on me and in the photos it looks gorgeous... maybe the BIN price should have been higher...
