Absolutely NAILS it!.. Tone AND swing!.. even live 😳

Selling my late brother's two basses after much deliberation and a long time in storage. Disclaimer: Many of you are aware of this bass and its story, but I'll lay it all out here from the beginning. It is also listed on TGP (the price below is TGP price (hint hint), and much of what you will see/read is taken directly from that ad. What we have here is a bass from the heyday of BC Rich, a 1981 Eagle Bass in splendid Blueburst. My big brother, Joey, custom ordered this BC Rich from Sam Ash Music on 48th Street in NYC, paying a whopping $981 for it (some of you may remember that was a LOT of money for a guitar back then) and we all thought he had taken leave of his senses. It is 100% original. Outside of the strings, nothing has been changed, and even those are reeeeaallyy ollld - at least 20 years old. Likely older. Condition is Excellent+. You won't find a finer example, and if you did I'll bet it's in Japan, and I'll bet you it's not Blueburst. Comes with OHSC. He used this bass and his 1976 Fender Precision Bass exclusively until his band split and he stopped gigging in around 1988. These are the only two basses he ever owned. They rarely saw the light of day again until his passing in 2012 and have been in my care since. I don't play bass so not much has changed, as I said before not even the strings. More knobs and switches than you'll know what to do with. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that the preamp battery will need to be replaced. Q: How sexy is this? A: All the sexy. The head. (Notice the absence of headstock dings). The serial number. (Notice the... serial number). $4,500 for local pickup (I'll meet you somewhere halfway if possible). $4,600 shipped to the lower 48US. BONUS MATERIAL: The Eagle in action onstage at some random punk club, c.1982.
