I think that smell is someone's goose!
Time for the RIC police to come down on that one!

BIG tuna. BIG tuna.
Clearly a case of not giving the RIC-buying public not nearly enough credit.

I also e-mailed the guy and suggested he remove the trc and relist as a copy. That's the worst "fireglo" that I've ever seen. I could do better at an attempted repro than that. I also agree that the guy is probably a jerk and very dishonest.

JH or Kenny should put the screws to that seller ASAP.
The title of the auction says it all:
VINTAGE 70'S RICKENBACKER 4003 FIREGLOW ...
Anyone with any knowledge knows there are no 1970s 4003s! Legitimate mistakes are one thing, but ignoring facts is quite another.

I emailed JH I got a response back that ric will be closed until 6-10 for the holidays.This guy might get away with it.

"After further research, we have found that this is likely a 4002 modlel from Rickenbacker. "
Huh?!?

That seller is asking for a foot right in his mouth.
