From one of the first years of this model's production, this 1959 450 is an early example of the iconic brand and rock n' roll culture Rickenbacker would pioneer in the decades to come. The single toaster top pickup provides a full range of bass to treble with its control knob. A metal Rickenbacker logo plate adorns the headstock, furthering the rareness and collectibility of this piece. Cosmetically it's sustained some player wear over the years, but still retains all its original components.Includes OHSC with one latch broken.
