The black one is not original.

I know that, but it still nice.

"Sorry to be a wet blanket, but the bridge assembly on that 4001S is not Rickenbacker-made."

Please clue me in, Sergio. What's the giveaway?

Precisely.

Thanks. So I'm looking at a high price for a bass that does not have the original bridge, pickup surround or case. And it has some significant wear to it. Got any ideas on a reasonable offer?

850-975...USD

Well I'll pass on it since I don't think I'm going to get them to come down $500 on a bass.
