But at least he admits it. This is another of those "piece of s#!& bass with RICKENBACKER (fill in the inconsequential item like a pick or brochure)" auctions. What ever it takes to get the Rickenbacker name in the auction text.
DON'T CLICK if you have just eaten - could be messy...

Is that a neck through? Looks odd in a weird way, but looks like it might be a decent guitar.

Once you get past the RIC copyright/trademark issues.

"A Giannini bass in this style are quite rare these days and are VERY sought after. This is a stylish guitar with a great sound, not to be missed!"

Really?! By whom?

Hey, I finally saw one of these before it got pulled.

...I don't feel much better for it, though.

"A Giannini bass in this style are quite rare these days"

Probably because of they're being illegal?
