Indeed and surprise there is no Reserve. It's shelf life on the bay will be a short one I suspect but not due to its sale.
Life, as with music, often requires one to let go of the melody and listen to the rhythm

You can get the case candy very easily new on eBay, you know!

Anyway, people who might not be that familiar with Ric basses might think this is a real one... but then, at the starting price it's too good to be true, eh :wink:

It's a RICKENBAXCKER 4003 BASS...actually looks like one of those Rottenbetters with a Rickenbacker TRC.

Uhm? No, it's a real Rickenbaxcker, as Joey already pointed out :lol:

Joey, do the Rockinbetters now come in a BBR finish? I only see them in bad FG over here.

I really don't know much about the Rottenbetter line. I just know that I wish they would go away.

Also the fact that it has a real SN - although one from July 1982!! Scary the detail that is correct even though Blue Burst and the awful fret board and toasters give it away as a fake in seconds..

Also scary is that 5 poor twits are bidding on it...
