I was forced to buy a new (used) car yesterday. So, now I have a 2018 Honda Accord BUT this puts me in a position to sell this bass. Same old TB sob story "I don't want to sell."
With no exaggeration this bass totally unique and fantastic in every way. Materials, wood, electronics, playability, fit, finish, appearance, and a cool back story.
The four ply pick guard, two tone sunburst, Ti hardware, electronics (its voice), perfectly cut nut and maple neck (that rosewood board is too much!) all combine to make the Richie among the best bass I have ever owned.
I am in a constant search for under $1k basses that punch beyond their weight class. This bass is one of my best finds.
Shipping and case included. For sale only, no trades and price is firm. I don't know how you could replace this bass, truly a one of a kind. I think it is a $2K bass.
Condition is the same as the day I got it with the addition of a fresh set up.
