    Probably my favorite bass. Beautiful to look at. Awesome to play! Hope you get one.

    Go get it. You can’t play music with your bank account. A year from now you’ll have a fabulous bass, and you won’t miss the money.

    I've always wondered why they haven't made these since 1984. The original 60s ones go for $10K (!). I like the original design without the binding on the top.

    But, I won't ever drop 10k. I will see if one shows up used, and then likely can't resist. One eventually will. And I already have two rick basses...

    Aye ,totally cool bass that,i should get one too,cause i already have a 6 and 12 string like that,would complete the set!;)

    Not going to happen though ,owing to me being perpetually broke,and,i'm not a bass player.

    They went away because they were too expensive and they weren't selling. They probably will go away again for the same reason. Nice looking bass but not worth the money. I love my Rickenbacker but they are not very versatile.

    It's a limited run for their anniversary, so away they go.

    Yeah, stupid expensive, but man I love those double bound bodies! If I ever win the lottery, I'm going after a 360/12C63.
