Happy Jack Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 [size=3][b][color="#0000FF"]Beautiful Blue Rickenbacker Bass guitar made from single piece of wood[/color].[/b][/size] Do you have ANY idea how hard it is to find a single piece of wood that shape, and with all those different grains and characteristics? I used to have one of those cheap Rickenbackers, you know, the ones made from at least a dozen different pieces of wood all glued together and stuff.

markstuk Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 (edited) Obviously hewn from a single piece of Rosewood... I've emailed him to confirm that this is the case but have not heard back yet :-) I did say I was very interested and wanted the model number and serial number as well :-) Edited November 27, 2010 by markstuk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Heeley Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 I thought ric boards were bubinga, if he'd hewn it from a single piece of bubinga it would have left him with some very blunt router bits and back problems. Is 5K a bit on the steep side? Something fishy here... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spinynorman Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 Some clown bid £6500 on it, but saw the error of their ways and retracted. A fine record of 5 bid retractions in 6 months, Must have some peculiar muscle problems in the index finger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Jack Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 Do you think that means there are now TWO pieces of wood? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
