"in good condition except 2 issues"
"Bridge is bent, Big Neck crack"

Yea, that's in good shape.
The bridge looks like an authentic RIC bridge.
Slightly bent on 90 degrees.

Maybe he should invest in a tuner.

No, he should invest in a chain saw to make short work of that sorry excuse for a bass guitar.

The fingerboard inlays and checkered binding are nice.

"Bridge is bent (note picture) This is made out of pot metal, so you can bend it back with some heat easily."

Sure it could........EASILY!

I guess it wasn't just the real Ricks that required care when adjusting the neck then.

That neck's seen it's last adjustment, I would say!
Why is it that all the fakers have checkered binding?

Invalid Item.

Did anyone here save the pic of the bent bridge?

EDIT: oops... I see Sergio did. Nevermind.

Yeah, I did, just in case anyone still thinks that fake 4001 basses are worth wasting time or money on haha!
