I didn't make the reserve and didn't expect to. This is a gorgeous bass!

The seller used to be a regular on here and I haven't seen him around in some time. I bought a 4003SPC Tuxedo off of him that was in great condition also.....transaction went smooth so I would certainly deal with him again but don't think I'll bid enough to get it. My Blackstar lust has diminished recently so I'm not willing to pay silly money for one like I was a few months ago. Oh well

Damn! This is probably one of my favorite Rickenbackers – of ones that I don’t own if you know what I mean.

I think Kendal is over-the-top with that BIN – IMO.

Well we are nearing bonus time – I’m watching it closely!

Other than a possible surprise from JH for the 75th, this is probably the only other Rick that I’ve been looking for.

Let the games begin!

Oh honey – did you say you wanted me to paint the house!

He might be over the top, but if you don't ask for it, you don't get it. Worth the risk, in my opinion.

someone will buy it...

Around Christmas I would have done the BIN for a mint one. The minor paint defect on this one and lack of COA would have put me closer to the 2k mark. The BIN may be a little high but things have been getting silly......

......what's the pool for the reserve price ?

I'm in at $2251

I'd say $2500...

I like those also, almost as much as all white ones.

$2455.99

...I say reissue it in a 5 string version...

It's sitting at just over 2K (reserve not met) with 2.75 hours left. Will it sell? (drum roll...)

"not I", said the pig...

I don't think it will go. If the reserve is at $2500 I think it will fall short by a few. With a BIN at $2500 (rather than the speculated reserve)I think it would have been gone a few days ago....
