Details

Love this bass but it does not get played as much as it deserves. $1300 shipped CONUS. Paypal only. Includes RIC hardshell case.

Here are the notes from the previous seller:

Custom bass built from only the finest (and most expensive) parts! The custom ordered Moses Carbon-Graphite neck alone was $795 new! This is a one of a kind and you will never see anything like it ever again!!!!! THIS IS NOT a Rickenbacker (see below)!
Parts/ Specs
Vintage (lawsuit) MIJ Electra Corsair body (hand contoured) - Same dimensions and shape as a Rickenbacker 4001/4003
Custom USA Moses carbon-graphite Ric neck with Mother of Pearl Shark fin inlays (also like 4001/4003)
GraphTech graphite nut
Bartolini 6RT & 6RC ;pickups (Bart Ric replacements)
Bartolini 4.7A PreAmp (3-band EQ w 3-way mid-shift adjust)
Black Hipshot Ricky cloverleafs
Black Hipshot Ricky replacement bridge (brass)
Black All-Parts pickguard
Black Pickguardian bridge pickup surround
Black Dunlop flush-mount straploks
Custom lightning bolt Truss Rod Cover that reads "Frankenbacker"
Bass plays great. Since the neck is carbon-graphite, it will never warp, etc. It's straight as an arrow. Truss rod works great too. The other parts were also EXTREMELY expensive. Go price the Hipshot USA Ric replacement bridge, tuners, Bartolini pickups, carbon-graphite neck (one-off custom order), etc. This bass cost thousands to build. Again, this is a one of a kind bass. There is no other like it in the world. If you want to be the guy playing the most unique (and cool) instrument around, this is it. It also plays great and sounds AWESOME!
