I took this in on a trade a couple weeks ago. I have been looking for a good quality Ric copy for a long time now and this one fit the bill perfectly. However as things always seem to happen I have a car repair bill that takes priority.
This bass plays really nice and the action is much better than I expected. Truss rod is fully functional and there are no issues that I have found or am aware of. The nut is ever so slightly wider than 1 1/2" and the neck contour is very comfortable. It can achieve a decent Ricish sound as well. I do have the original bridge pickup cover, it is the rectangular one, not the Fender shaped one. Its just not on the bass when I took photos.
After looking at the last couple Rockinbetters that have come up for sale here I think that $525 shipped is more than fair. PayPal is ok. No gig bag or case however the bass will be packed very securely. Lower 48 only. If you are local I'll happily knock off the shipping cost.
When I got the bass it did not have a truss rod cover. I got in touch with the UK Tokai rep and they have them available for sale for 25 pounds plus shipping. I made one out of a scrap piece of plexi for under $2 and it looks decent enough though there is no lettering on it.
How about $350 plus shipping? Any interest?
