Up for grabs is my 1970s El Degas Rickenbacker copy. These were produced in Japan and sold under the El Degas name in Canada. I've never seen an El Degas outside of Canada, and have only seen 2 other 4001 copies with that brand name.

 

This bass is completely neck through and is an incredibly accurate copy. It's Fireglo with cream binding.Truly a great bass, but I can't get used to the ergonomics. I've installed the Pickguardian system on the bridge pickup, but the original pickup surround is included.

 

The bass does feature stereo output, as well as mono output. The bridge mutes all work, and can make for some really good thump. No major dings or dents. Has small superficial scratches that are to be expected on a vintage instrument. It will ship with a period hard case.

 

I'd like 750+Shipping for this incredible and accurate copy. It plays better than any modern Rickenbacker I've touched.

 

For trades, I'm interested in Laklands, interesting Fenders, Gibsons, or other interesting things.
