Description
Here is a very nice Rickenbacker 4001V63 Lefty in Fireglo. This reissue instrument was built in 2001 and is in good condition.
These feature a maple body, maple neck, and rosewood board. They are unbound with dot inlays, and include a toaster pickup at the neck and horseshoe at the bridge. The hardware is all Rickenbacker designed & branded including the tuners, guard, knobs, and bridge.
The bass is in good shape, it has a handful of tiny dings over the body, and as well as a number of light surface scratches and marks. There are no major dents and no exposed wood. The frets are in good shape and the back of the neck shows a couple faint impressions that are not really noticeable while playing. The hardware has light wear and oxidation as well. The strap buttons are changed to Schallers.
This one weighs 9lbs 12oz. The neck is a full rounded C that measures .915 to .950 at the 1st and 12th. The bass is punchy and lively. It has a bold round sound with nice cutting clarity and a powerful horseshoe pickup.
Ships in the original silver vintage style case. The case has a well-worn exterior, though the case interior and the bass itself are much cleaner by comparison.
