Fake Rickenbacker?

[Joe Milo]

Posting a CL ad here and was curious what you guys and gals thought? I didn't know Ricks were made with this body style or is it a fake?

Not a Rickenbacker.

That is a 2030 Rickenbacker. I has a bolt on neck and the slimmest neck of any Rickenbacker made!

it is a ric,

[Floyd Eye]

Hmm. Never seen one before. When did they make those?

[Ric5]

They made the 2000 series basses and 200 series guitars from 1986 until the early to mid 90s. They were a cheaper Rickenbacker based on the 3000/3001 body shape.

Joe Walsh uses a 200 series guitar to play slide on for Eagle concerts. Here he is playing a Glen Fry signature model.

I have one of those. It is a lot like a 4004 bass. The neck and the electronics are essentially a 4004. I converted mine into a 5 string bass and put in an Audere 4 band preamp.
