Maybe sometime in 2006...(I don't know, I am guessing...)but from Ben Hall's posts on upcoming production, it didn't sound like those were in the mix from what I remember. Thanks again for posting that info, Ben. I'm sleeping much better! Image

You will!

I used to have a RB5FL but the neck was just to fat for me to play comfortably. The 4 string is very nice, and of course the sound of these basses are quite unique.

when will they make a CII5 again? remember they are redesigning the pickups on that baby ... so Joey ... those 2 you have are now very rare ... I'm not sure I will like the wide neck on those babies ... but I do like my 4004 4-2-5 conversion basses ...

Joey, the Fodera should arrive late next week - just before I blast off to Hong Kong. It always happens that way.

Jeff,if the RT sounds anything like my RA that's gonna be one great bass!

Does anyone know how many of the CII/5's were actually made before Rickenbacker stopped production?
