***Rick Clone/Fakenbacker for sale. High res pics! Must see***

For sale is a Rick clone that I received in trade from a fellow TBer. It is beautiful and it is really well made, but I don't know too much about it. It has a set neck. The truss works really well in both directions, and the neck is very stable with low action. It sounds great; almost like a ballsier J-Bass. I really like it but have some recent expenses come up, and need to buy another amp head due to my backup being stolen. Lets say $425 SHIPPED to the lower 48. Thanks!

Thanks! And in response to the most common PM question, no I don't have a case for it--it will be shipped very securely and fully insured.

What's the width at the nut? If it's by chance 1.5 hit me with a pm. This would be cool and I got an itchy paypal finger lol.

Does the headstock say Rickenbacker?

SubSectorSucker · #11 02-19-2011, 05:52 PM

Yeah..it does....along with "made in the usa". It's pretty shameless....which is why I did'nt go out of my way to show it. If I were to keep it, I would probably have made a "Rickenfaker" plate

Any idea who actually made it?

GeneralElectric · #13 02-19-2011, 06:28 PM

I think Shine makes these copies. And a free bump for a great TBer to work with.

Does it feel like a Ric? C'mon tax return...

If I played 4 string basses I would be tempted. Also taking EB3 pickups and switching the neck and bridge is a smart idea. I bet that bass snarls!
