Hi y'all, Not sure if this would be anyones cup o' tea, but there’s an unusual ebay offering http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/rickenbacker-4001-bass-project-without-hardware_W0QQitemZ7422957974QQcategoryZ4713QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem . One bass with no hard ware. Any one out there with enough spare part to make this one live again.

Ciao for now, mark.

Could it could be a single truss rod faker? That cavity looks small...

He does say it's a 4001 body, would that not explain the single truss rod? However I'm no expert, sorry in advance if I'm wasting anyones time with this.

It's not the real thing.

The front shot is very clear but the headstock route does not look right. Neither do the inlays. Other than that, it appears to be one of the better-made fakers.
