Exactly how difficult would be to get a TRC for this bass. Could you not get one from Rickenbacker, maybe if you supplied the serial number found on the jack-plate and some photos. I would think there would be some way to get one, other than taking a chance on ebay. Any thoughts?
I just checked out the bidding history on this one & call me cynical but… I bet it actually sold for more.
I have seen this happen with real estate over the years. Given that there was a lot of interest on the bass, including myself, why let it go early to a bid that is just a fraction above the next best? Hmmmmmm…….
