A rather low priced Ric 4001

[Marky L]

With a few days to run I'm sure the price will shoot up, but with no reserve and a collect only from Sunderland, this might be worth a punt for someone.

Is that right on the neck with a strip of what looks like the fingerboard wood between the binding and the finish on the back of the neck?

Cracking around the headstock/tuner... result of a drop and structural or paint 'crazing'?

Yes - bizzarely the fingerboard wood on these actually extends below the binding.

Why? It looks horrible. Is this just another RIC idiosyncrasy ?

I emailed the seller asking for some more photos of the neck. His reply: "Hi I'm not taking anymore pics-sorry.I've had an overwhelming response to the ad and I'm currently in negotiations with someone to end the auction early,cheers"
