Whatever it is, I strongly suspect it is not a Rickenbacker!

Re: New finish on my '67 4005
I have a memory of someone in my high school having one of these basses back in the '70s, made in Hong Kong or Taiwan, that looked a lot like this one. IIRC the TRC was a very similar knockoff to the Rickenbacker logo, except the name was MUCH shorter, something like 4 letters or something, and there was no way they stretch it out to fill the entire area of the cresting wave like "Rickenbacker" does...
