How do you pronounce "4001"?

With regard to the 4001, my experience is that in most cases, the number is eschewed, and almost considered immaterial - "He plays a Rick" - because the distinction between a 4001, 4001S and 4003 is not immediately apparent. With Fender, the difference between a Precision and a Jazz is more obvious, and one is more likely to omit the brand name in favor of the model.
