Vintage 1983 Rickenbacker 340 Jetglo Black Ric 

Details

Cosmetic Condition:

This one remains in good condition. It is a vibey piece really showing its history as a guitar that got out there into the world rather than just sitting under a bed. There are nicks and scratches throughout along with some paint chips. A previous owner had touched up some of these spots with a marker or paint pen. It's not too obvious unless viewed at certain angles or under bright lights.

Repairs & Mods:

None

Feel & Playability:

The neck has a medium to medium/thick neck profile that has a great round shape. The frets are original and do show wear to them, but mostly on the first few frets. There are no issues with fret-out or dead spots. The action is pretty easy playing and medium in height. There's room to lower the bridge but as is pretty common on these Rics the pickup sit rather high. You can always bring them down but would need to replace the foam they sit on. Medium is good though as you can really dig in and bash away at the strings. Rickenbackers always sound great when you really hit em hard. The neck is straight too.
