An Azureglo, cool! Fairly rare for that finish, Frode. I've seen Jetglo and Burgundy more than any other finish for this guitar.

Well, what are you standing around and about for? Go get it, fast!Image
A Rickenbacker bass is much like the Jaguar E car - perennially ultra-fashionable.

I talked to the owner, but the guitar is a bit far from Karmøy so I wont be able to watch it before december. So I guess it will be sold before that. I have been looking for a 4001 shaped guitar for a while. But you go get it Lars:-) I probably should save my money for my next bass anyway

I love my '76 480. It is the best playing Rickenbacker 6-string I own. Great neck!
