I have a 1973 Fireglo 480 w/ case. I'll spare the model details because you guys know your stuff, but it's in pretty darn good condition.
A few tiny nicks here and there, but nothing worthy of noting in terms of finish problems. All original parts except for the nut around the pickup selector and a small screw on the bridgeplate (I included a picture below, although even in person you might not even notice them). The only "problem" worth mentioning is one of the locks on the case is crooked and won't close. I bought it in this condition (Music-Go-Round in Lynnwood, WA), but with the other two locks working, I've had no problems/concerns in 10+ years.The guitar has been keep in a non-smoking, temperate environment since I've had it.
I've included a link to an mp3 of the guitar through a Fender black face (via a Line 6 Flextone) that should give an indication of the sound/range of the guitar.

The Trade
I'm not looking to sell the guitar; I'd rather trade for your Rickenbacker 330/360 (fireglo preferred, but would consider jetglo). I would prefer not to deal with shipping, so if you leave near the Washington state area, I could drive out and meet (and if you're farther, maybe half way?).
If you're interested, I can be reached at [email protected]
I have plenty more pictures of the guitar, so feel free to send any questions or request more pics.
here are some links to more pics:
