They Spelled it Correctly!

Post by Ivan3000 »

Here is a 480 on ebay with the word "Relicked" spelled correctly.
http://cgi.ebay.com/Rickenbacker-480-ra ... 35b33042b0

Old somewhat rare nice player, like I said its been relicked just from being played. Actually a player here in town used it extensively as his main axe, so its seen plenty of gigs. Still got some miles left in it though, I drag it out and play it once in a while but basically I have just been sitting on it and enjoying it for almost 20 years. Original case. Neck reminds me of the old moserites, actually I think they copied the ricky. Not quite as thin as moserite but definetly like a slim fender and still quite a player. I'm sure a Ricky afficionado will scoop this up, its I think a rare find and desirable. Not like the $2000 ones in pristine condition, but hey heres yer chance to pick one up reasonable....bid away my friends, need to put it out there for someone else to enjoy.....

:lol: :lol: I hadn't even noticed that... Watching closely, but it'll probably go beyond what I can spend right now...
:(
I have NO idea what to do with those skinny stringed things... I'm just a bass player...

Wow. I can't believe he did this consciously, since he misspelled and failed to capitalize "Mosrite". But, nice guess. Looks soooo right.

Oh, yeah, so does the Rick.

I thought it was spelled - Relic'd :?: As in my new truck got relic'd in the Wal Mart parking lot today by a hit and run driver.
