Sigificantly modded?????? Yeah, I would say a new neck, pickups, string tree among other things are fairly significant...

It should be "half of the guitar has been completely replaced".

I am curious what the headstock on the guitar neck looks like...think it's a Strat neck?

Too bad it would be so tough to put this one back into semioriginal shape...not a lot of aftermarket Rickenbacker bolt on necks out there! But, if some budding Pete Townshend out there put a damaged Rick guitar body with an intact neck up for auction, it would make one interesting project....

I would not be terribly difficult to reproduce the neck but it would impact the value. The BIN is low but not low enough, I'm afraid. It would end up being a player.

That's actually kinda cool looking, Jeff.

Yikes!!

Let's keep the headless thing and Rics completely separate.

That pic of Jeff's really reminds me of a PBC bass I saw once. Anyone remember anything about those and their "tension-free" necks?

Agreed. It looks vile, terrible.

Lets keep Roger Rossmeisl's timeless design untouched.

I am partial to my mid-1970s Bunker ProStar bass - same Tension-Free neck, but not "headless":
