1966 Rickenbacker 4005

Post by moultrup »

Just purchased a 1966 Rickenbacker 4005 in Mapleglo. The guitar has been in a collection and from the impeccable condition it appears was never played in 46 years.

James, what a fantastic find. Congratulations!

Here are the pictures of my new 1966 Rickenbacker 4005 Mapleglo. The bass is in perfect condition. It was in a collection for most of its life and not played as evidenced by the pictures.
