Its a short scale Ric 3000, not many of these around. Heres the basics, I took this from 'Rickresource.com"" 3000 "This bass was originally designed as a low-priced, economical, student model. Features: Short scale (30"), single high-gain hum-canceling pickup, 21 frets, 2 controls knobs (volume and tone), unlaquered fingerboard. Available in natural satin maple and Colorglo finishes 1971 - First version was introduced and abruptly discontinued because the original prototype was unsatisfactory 1975 - Second version an improved model was reintroduced with a different bridge, electronics and pickguard. 1984 - Discontinued" heres the serial PC 2046 "Your guitar was manufactured in March of 1976" The bass has a few bruises but nothing major she plays and sounds teriffic! a bit deeper sounding than a standard Ric. This comes with the OHSC. Not looking for trades on this one I need to pay for my 4001. $900 shipped (OBO) to the lower 48 only Paypal/Money order/Personal checks Thanks for looking. - Tom echo008 Advanced Member Username: echo008 Post Number: 311 Registered: 2-2003 Posted on Saturday, November 11, 2006 - 2:52 pm:    Pic of the back Mod Dave: If you see this.... Please fix the title for me, I accidentially spelled "Rickenbacker" incorrectly. Thanks!
