My guess it's a knock-off. You Ric guys will know better than me. No actual mention of the brand. Odd to leave out a picture of the front of the headstock.

Cool looking bass! Not a Ric but still has a nice vibe and he's starting at $200 so assume it's a knockoff.

Wow 12lbs. Seems heavy for a semi hollow body short scale. " Needs a good set up" a bit of a red flag for a knock off. Doesn't offer returns either.

Here is a better image of the nameplate (nice that it's blank)

I am not interested in this bass but good to know know the seller is submitting all information and the buyer can make a decision.
