Description
What makes this guitar special: A cute little Ricky with a sweet, true vintage vibe. Simple yet charming, this first year of production 420 model is really fun to play & offers a rich, ringing tone. Professionally set up & ready for action.
Cosmetic Condition: Various nicks, chips, dents & dings; surface scratches, buckle rash & some mild finish wear. There's a very tiny bit of separation between the fingerboard & neck on the bass side, first fret area, but nothing major & certainly nothing that affects playability. Overall the guitar has a wonderful look to it with a gorgeous patina.
Neck: Slender profile maple neck with thick rosewood fingerboard & cream dot inlays. Original frets show some wear, but still have life in them. Kluson Deluxe tuners with cream buttons in good working condition. 1 9/16" nut width; 24 3/4" scale length.
Body: 'Cresting wave' solid maple body with single-ply white plexi pickguard. Unoriginal Space Control bridge has a cool look & works great. Guitar weighs a delightful 6 lbs 4.4 oz.
Pickup: Rickenbacker 'toaster top' single coil - 7.58K ohms. Master volume & tone controls with newer Ric knobs; 3-way toggle switch. All electronics are in good working condition.
Case: Unoriginal hardshell case included.
