There's a one knob prewar Ric on eBay but be careful.
The price being asked, I'd say, would be for a pristine unit. This one clearly shows a neck repair job........with metal plates evident on top of the neck where it attaches to the body. The screws appear not to be all the way thro' the neck and I see no sign of an adhesive to bond the two pieces together.
Just tho't you should know. |

Ray, there is another post on this same guitar, I think. I thought that it looks like the neck had been broken off but didn't see any sign from the back. There is no mention of it in the description ( maybe I am being naive). _________________ Time flies like an eagle

Somebody will be in for a surprise. I hope it's not anybody here.
It was purchased with a Best Offer.
I was ready to jump on this one - until I noticed the neck. I asked the seller ( a large dealer, it seems.) if there was a crack in the neck where it joins the body. Seems it slipped his mind when he listed it!
He responded: "There are a coupld of small cracks in the 10th & 11th frets. I will revise the ad, thanks."
It was purchased before he did.
It was a beauty otherwise -
"So other than that, how did you enjoy the play, Mrs. Lincoln?" |
