'82 4080 MG... $5,500 starting bid.

Like in most 4080's I have seen, the binding and pickguard/TRC are contrasting colors.

Don't think I've seen one with Black Binding before.

He does have the complete Black plastic too inc Ric plates.

5 string pickup - that's odd! Someone swapped out the nut and reversed the octave/fundamental string arrangement (for the better) too. Looks a lot like my '93. My tailpiece does not have the "teeth" removed from the mute area, or the one big opening where the strings pass through from the back though. I guess mine is a standard, 7 hole, 4003 tailpiece.

These are all so clean and nice. My 4001 must be the second most beat up looking Jetglo out there...

I love beat up Rics. There was a beat to hell 4000 FG on eBay 3 years ago that I still kick myself for not getting. It went for $1,500 IIRC.

Everything about that one is nice. One of only two, it sure is rare, doubt if it's $8500 rare.

That one may get the starting bid or more, weren't there something like only a dozen of these made?
