Selling my vintage 1976 Rickenbacker 3001 bass – a rare and beautifully aged instrument with tons of character. Solid build, great tone, and that unmistakable Rickenbacker growl. It’s in very good condition for its age, with all original parts and natural wear that adds to its vintage appeal. There's a little buckle rash on the back of the bass as is very common. The bass comes with the original blue velvet hard shell case, which is also in great shape. A perfect piece for collectors or players looking for a unique sound and feel. I really don't want to part with this beauty but I could use the cash at the moment. Feel free to reach out with any questions.
