MAKE ME AN OFFER I CAN'T REFUSE!
VERY Rare & Personally Signed Vintage Rickenbacker 4001 V-63 Bass! LEFT HANDED & excellent+ condition! Classic Fireglo lacquer finish.
Serial # YK 2067, from 1985. The V-63 (Vintage RE-issue 1963) 4001 series was discontinued 20+ years ago, there are not many around. All original Rickenbacker equipment, maple body & gloss varnished Vermillion Rosewood fretboard.
Has ALL the sought-for Rickenbacker tones & sounds: the punchy bridge pickup & piano-like "Toaster" neck pickup. Plays & feels WONDERFUL, perfect balance, neck is sweet.
Personally signed by the late / great CHRIS SQUIRE, of YES, in 1994 on the "TALK" tour. I met him back stage thru some friends in the YES tribute band "Fragile". His sig. has faded a bit, but I have a closeup picture of it when it was fresh! HE took it from me and said: "Why . . it's BACKWARDS!!", in his charming & jovial way, after my Wayne's World 1 knee presentation of "I'm NOT worthy . . "
Last time I checked, this bass listed $ 3,289 + 15% for left handed = $3,782 . . But THAT was NOT PERSONALLY SIGNED by CHRIS SQUIRE.
I can't work, or play anymore except on the couch . . I'll be selling off all my other guitars, amps & basses soon, also. RIC CASE with navy-blue velour included.
Ideal, VINTAGE bass for another lefty player . . . I've had / been playing this bass since 1992, I will miss it.
The "MAGIC" happens when you play Am7 chord from "Silent Wings", ABOVE the 12th fret. NO OTHER bass get's that sound.
PERIOD!!
I'd LIKE $4,300 TO LET THIS BABY GO . . O.B.O.
I've VIEWED numerous other: V-63, 4001s for sale, NONE are as clean or as original as mine, and NONE were signed by the original: "Schindreleria Prima Taurus".
RSVP if interested, I'm in Cincinnati Ohio. -Joe PS I have a dozen hi-def pix, can't upload here, please e-mail for those.
