Hi I've seen this on eBay:
http://cgi.ebay.es/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320043030045
and I'd like to ask to the "pros" if they think if this is worth to fix it, it just started very cheap (I know the price might increase a lot).
Thanks a lot

If the price stays cheap it would be worth it. There is that crack in the neck, but that can be fixed. Getting a TRC would be the first thing I'd be on the lookout for.

It's scary to think what might have happened to the rest of it.

Parted out on eBay, no doubt.

Yeah John, this guy is such a kind of a butcher, he put it into pieces and now sells it, maybe he is Jack the Ricker.

If I've read the listing correctly, then all the parts should come with this auction, despite the photos not showing any!
"1976 RICKENBACKER 4001 BASS..."
"The Item: 1976 Rickenbacker 4001 Bass, the (original?) case is included"
"This guitar was a complete, original, 76 4001".
No mention of only getting the body anywhere in the auction description, but plenty of mention of a complete bass. A quick look at his other items suggests that no parts will be supplied, but the auction itself makes no mention of this and is obviously misleading.

Mark, I think is very clear in the description, he/she explains it well in the Backstory paragraph. Is just the body. Don't ever forget that Jack the Ricker always makes things part by part: This is the big bite.

As I said, he is Jack the Ricker
