    Just watching…out of my league
  2. Godber started following 1966 Rickenbacker 4001

    There were a couple of serious collectors (one U.K. one USA) head-to-head for that one. Pretty rare bass though.

    Hello Tony, that's a very nice collection you have there - love the 1998 PT, great colour Fireglo on that one...let me know if you get tired of it! Time to look for a Rick bass isn't it? [size=4] [/size]

    Very nice George, great colour and a little flamed maple on the body too. Congrats lovely bass, I would have like to have got one myself.

    The seller quoted me $616.16 or $360 (depending on the service) for posting to England, so unfortunately it's not a good end price. Fireglo is pretty rare for this model and the seventies Fireglo on that is very sweet indeed. There's a white 3001 listed today too, but it looks like it has a couple of worrying cracks at the neck/body. Getting a proper Rickenbacker case for these would be pretty tricky too.

    Congratulations, that is a fab looking bass. Love it.
  14. Godber
    Wow, what a great looking and sounding bass that is. That would be great for rocksteady & reggae. Sweet.

    Wow lovely bass. Quality colour.

    I think that is a name - they usually have the names of RIC workers scrawled at factory inspection stages. Model numbers and finish colours are also common. Is that a white '74?

    It looks like a real 4001 to me. The back of the headstock shows a faint centre section line between the tuners. The (post 1971) 4001 had a dark shedua "skunk" stripe down the middle, the 4003 did not. Try to scrape a little paint off of the area under the truss rod cavity to be sure - there may be an area to check this by the tail piece which is clear of paint already by the look of it. Both the 4001 and the 4003 have dual truss rods George. [color=#333333] [/color] The horns are huge even after the edge sanding to remove the binding rout and so I would put it between 1980 and 1985, probably edging towards 84-85.
