I have seen "Rickenbacker 481", but never actually LOOKED. And i see now that it is not a short 6-string bass

It's very nice of them to show a map with the exact location of the seller (and presumably, the guitar!) pinpointed...
Unbelievable.

The slant frets are rather unique to these Rickenbackers, and do look strange.

That is shocking, 480/481 are becoming very "in" here in the UK, nice work Serge!

I love the slant frets. I have short, stubby fingers and the slant does make playing certain chords easier. I wish all my Ricks had this feature.
