Pete Academy Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 A family friend has asked if I would try to sell his Rickenbacker 4001 for him. Serial number 6299, October 1974. Jetglow finish. The neck paintwork is fairly worn at the top, and there's a crack in the scratchplate. Other than that, all original. No checkerboard binding. I'm trying to get pics uploaded but having trouble. Hope to rectify this soon. He's looking for around £1700.

Cat Burrito Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 I don't want to get any hopes up (hence no PM) but I am in the market for a Rickenbacker bass and have funds. What do you think of this? Does it play well? Is the neck good? What's the weight? Can you guess it if you can't weigh it? Have you tried it? Any issues? Original case etc? Sorry for all the questions! We had another similar thread yesterday with the similar lovely pics but not much detail. I have found a couple of nice Rickenbackers out there but I'm always happy to keep it in Basschat if I can. I was probably going to go new but if I can find a nice 70s 4001 I'll go with that. Cheers, Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
