Was recently setup and plays/sounds wonderful. Only looking to move because I just purchased an Orion 5 string and I need to try and recoup some funds. There is not a mark on her I can see, will ship in OHSC. Looking for $1450 shipped in the CONUS only. Thank you for looking! - Tom (Message edited by echo008 on November 03, 2014) (Message edited by echo008 on November 03, 2014) echo008 Senior Member Username: echo008 Post Number: 462 Registered: 2-2003 Posted on Monday, November 03, 2014 - 7:31 am:    Meant to post this pic first in line. gearhed289 Junior Username: gearhed289 Post Number: 26 Registered: 5-2004 Posted on Monday, November 03, 2014 - 11:19 am:    Very nice price. Good luck! earsplit New Username: earsplit Post Number: 10 Registered: 6-2014 Posted on Tuesday, November 04, 2014 - 2:28 pm:    What year is it? Does it have the push / pull vintage switch on the treble volume control? echo008 Senior Member Username: echo008 Post Number: 465 Registered: 2-2003 Posted on Tuesday, November 04, 2014 - 2:32 pm:    Hi, Yes it has the push/pull pot. I believe its from 2009. Thanks hifiguy Senior Member Username: hifiguy Post Number: 423 Registered: 10-2006 Posted on Tuesday, November 04, 2014 - 2:41 pm:    That is a sweetie of a bass. I had a '72 toaster/checkerboard 4001 from '73-94. Owning another Ricky is definitely on my bucket list, but I miss the checkerboard binding. echo008 Senior Member Username: echo008 Post Number: 466 Registered: 2-2003 Posted on Tuesday, November 04, 2014 - 3:30 pm:    Were those the ones with the "crushed" inlays and toasters, for sure very nice. You can't get one of those for $1450 (Message edited by echo008 on November 04, 2014) (Message edited by echo008 on November 04, 2014) hifiguy Senior Member Username: hifiguy Post Number: 424 Registered: 10-2006 Posted on Tuesday, November 04, 2014 - 3:57 pm:    Yep, and that's for darn tootin'.

My 1st Pro bass was the Rickenbacker 1974 Black Beauty (I bought it in 1974 @ 8th street music in Philly)! And now that I have the rig to run it properly muh trigger finger is gettin' mighty itchy!! echo008 Senior Member Username: echo008 Post Number: 470 Registered: 2-2003 Posted on Thursday, November 13, 2014 - 10:27 am:    It's been recently setup. Alot of the Rics Ive played in store had nuts that were cut very high form the factory, I had this gone over the nut was adjusted and the action is very nice. let me know if you have any questions Thanks.
