I would have liked that and the control harness, ideally, but I was being practical with my real needs for this bass (it would have required a whole lot more to do such on a 4004, too), and I wasn't really looking for a copy of the 4001S EXP bass, just the essence of it. Tone was the goal, and the simplified controls stay out of the way. This bass is for those great roundwound Squire/Lee kinds of sounds so all I really need is the selector switch, although I may eventually replace the volume and tone controls with two volume controls, along with the selector switch, but I am in no hurry to do so (and may never get around to doing that) since the bass sounds great as is.
