Heavy sound! Vintage Rickenbacker steel!"

This rare steel guitar was introduced around 1950 and discontinued in 1953. Both the body and neck are made of stamped metal, giving it a thick tone and sustain.
Pickups appear to have been replaced (not horseshoe). There is some rust, tarnish, and dirt scattered throughout, but it is commensurate with the age of the instrument. Both necks have damage to the paint film under the fingerboard transparency. The overall craftsmanship is rough, and it is difficult to tell how much of this is original condition, but a large area of the inside of the body has been coated with what appears to be silicone, and the wiring and pots have been replaced. The wiring and pots have been replaced. There is some hum when you take your hand off the strings, but it is tolerable. When the neck selector switch is set to the center position, the guitar is in standby mode. One of the setscrews on the switch plate is missing, but the hole is filled with paint. The heads of the other screws are also covered with paint, suggesting that the entire plate was painted after the screws were removed. The back cover is supposed to be fastened with 12 screws, but 4 screws are missing. There are traces of tape-like material applied to the back cover and the back of the head. Some peg shafts are slightly bent, but this does not affect tuning.
The upper (front) neck is in B11th tuning, and the lower (front) neck is in C6th tuning. There is some rust on the strings, but we do not carry replacement strings, so we are selling it as is. Please understand.
It is in PLAYER'S CONDITION, but a lap-able 8-string double neck steel is a rare find. You can enjoy the core tone and rich sustain of a Rickenbacker.

Year of production: 1950s
Accessories: non-genuine soft case (for oversized keyboards)

「重厚なサウンド!ヴィンテージ・リッケンバッカー・スティール!」

1950年頃に登場し1953年には生産中止となってしまった貴重なスティール・ギター。ボディ、ネックともにスタンプド・メタルで作られており、厚みのあるトーンとサスティンが魅力です。
ピックアップは交換されているようです(ホース・シューではありません)。全体に錆、くすみ、汚れが散見できますが、年式相応と言えるでしょう。両ネックともに指板の透明板下の塗膜にダメージが確認できます。全体にクラフツマンシップが荒く、またどこまでがオリジナル・コンディションなのか分かりかねるところがございますが、ボディ内側の広い範囲にシリコンらしきものが塗布されており、配線、ポットは交換されています。後付でアースの処理もなされています。弦から手を離すと多少ハム・ノイズが確認できますが、許容内と言えるでしょう。ネック・セレクター・スイッチをセンターにするとスタンバイ状態となります。同スイッチのプレートの止めネジブのうち一箇所が欠落していますが、そのネジ穴は塗料で埋まっております。他のネジの頭にも塗料が乗っており、ネジ欠落後にプレート全体を塗装しているようです。裏蓋は12箇所のネジで止めるようになっていますが、4箇所でネジが欠損しています。裏蓋及びヘッドの裏にテープ状のものを貼った痕が確認できます。一部のペグの軸が多少曲がっておりますが、チューニングに支障がない範囲です。
上段(前方)のネックはB11thチューニング、下段(手前)のネックはC6thチューニングとなっております。弦に若干の錆が発生しておりますが、当店では交換弦の取り扱いがないため、現状販売とさせていただきます。ご了承くださいませ。
プレイヤーズ・コンディションとなりますが、膝の上に乗せられる8弦ダブル・ネック・スティールは貴重です。リッケンバッカーらしい芯のあるトーン、豊かなサスティンをお楽しみいただけます。
