: Hello
: I'm looking for this type of bass and anyone who can help me out please contact me.Of course it must be used but in good playing condition.

Hello there. Maybe you should forget about the 4001 totally and go for the upgrade to the 4001, known as the 4003. The 4001 is made for flat strings only, but the 4003 can use flats & rounds. Rounds will chew up the fretboard of a 4001 and may even stress the neck to the point of a slight curve in the neck. The 4003 has bigger holes for sockets when adjusting the Rods in the neck. I had a buddy from Deer Lake that had a 4001 and he got rid of it after awhile. I told him about the 4003. Take care and,
May all Rush fans live long and prosper.
