Quad: Congrats on your new BN4. Looks awesome!  | I didn't exactly have an extra grand laying around either, but student loans that don't need to be paid back for four year even though I am no longer a student, and I work full time, are great.

But he still will (who in their right mind would turn down business?), but they cost more.

I have had her for sale, but i am about a inch from pulling it off the market- the 6 string is starting to grow on me- even though the BN5 is my F bass of choice this BN6 is pretty amazing!  |

Standard specs on a BN4:
-1.6" at nut
-34.5" scale.
All other specs are optional..(1.5" at nut, 34" scale, Etc...)
All BN4's are custom orders.

Rob | Really? I thought that 34" scale was the default on a BN4, since George only went to 34.5" to achieve what he wanted out of a B-string. 
At any rate, my BN4 is 34" scale. I'll have to measure the width at the nut, though.
And what the heck, one or two more photos for good measure!   |
