Its a light one at 9.0 pounds, which solves one of my problems with my previous jetglo 4003 (which was the wrong side of 9.5 pounds). Now that I am more used to the vagaries of the 4003S, lets see if I can cope with the ergonomics of a 4003. We will see. Arrives tomorrow, hopefully 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arrives tomorrow, hopefully I sold my 4003 in December, it was about 9lbs, very nice but convinced meself that I could no longer live with the sharp forearm contour. Keep hankering for a 4003S but I'm being good at the moment.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could have been worse, you could have read the thread and suddenly remembered you were buggered in Yorkshire in 1978. 😲 Edited May 12, 2022 by Richard R In which case please don't start a thread about it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gasman Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 Lusted after a 4003, borrowed a pal’s to try (he was selling it, funny old thing!) but like many folk here neither he nor I could get on with what we both considered to be its poor ergonomics right arm-wise. I then bought a trans blue 4004 Cheyenne 2, loved the look but again found the sound options woolly and inconclusive, though this was nice to play ergonomically. I’m now back home safely from Rick exploration with a Jazz Plus, wonderful! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
