Rickenbacker Guitars

Up for auction is a Rickenbacker 350V63 Electric Guitar in Midnight Blue with case. I've had this guitar since last year (summer '09) and have barely used it so I've decided to sell it.  It has only been used at home a handful of times and is in excellent, like-new condition.  Other than a small area on an edge close to the jack where there is a small scrape or smudge, I do not find any other scratches, dings or nicks worthy of mentioning.  This particular spot is very hard to photograph, but I included a photo in the album with the area highlighted.  Again, it is very minor. The guitar is very shiny, the neck is straight and it still smells like new. The serial # is 01038.  Includes all original paperwork.  These guitars retail for at least $2500 and this particular color will not be available until next spring.    Please keep in mind that this guitar is pre-owned and you may find something minor in the finish that I did not observe.  I realize that this is a lot of money to pay, but if you're going to be a nitpicker, this may not necessarily be the guitar for you. That being said, I will offer a 3-day money back policy if the guitar is not as I have described it, but buyer will have to pay the return shipping.

Shipping in the CONTINENTAL USA will be a flat $35 via UPS.  I will send tracking info as soon as I have it.  USA BIDDERS ONLY!!!
