Pickups replaced. Frets ripped out. I hope nobody bids without taking a close look.

Wow, see the sellers notes: The original owner wanted a fretless look so he took off the original fret lines. Does not the guitar's play or sound” Lastly, I hate when folks purchase a Ric then change the pickups to make it sound not like a Ric. The only reason to get a Ric is for the Ric sound. If you want a Fender sound get a Fender. Both are great basses but both have different sounds. |

Some saint should buy it, order factory original pickups and frets, and fix it. If possible, they should also stop payment so the guy who did that gets what he deserves for it. |

Rickenbacker with a DiMarzio X2N in the bridge and a Seymour Mini Humbucker in neck? That's a first! |

I can't tell if the condition of this bass is the result of too many drugs, or not enough of them. |

Though not in the description, this bass was re-painted. Hard to tell from the pictures, but it looks like it was not sanded flat on the face either. Looks like a slight contour along the edge from the way the light is hitting it. |
