I have an '86, which plays like a dream. It has a nice thin, narrow neck. I'm not sure if I found a gem or if that was just a good run or a good era for RIC, but if that one is like mine, it will make someone happy.
The bass in the listing has a true lefty headstock, whereas mine has a righty. So, I guess sometime between '86 and '89 was when RIC started making true lefty headstocks. The inlay on the '89 is still reversed, though. I kind of like that mine has a righty neck put on a lefty body.
