Rickenbacker 90th Anniversary 480XC TobaccoGlo

Serial Number 2217796 weighs 7 lbs 12 oz

Rickenbacker will be celebrating its 90th anniversary this year.

A modern take on the Model 480, which was discontinued in 1984, the Rickenbacker 480XC features sleek black hardware, the brand’s signature checkerboard binding and a Macassar ebony fingerboard.

The brand has also chosen to replace the original’s covered bridge with a Schaller bridge, which should offer improved sustain. As for electronics, there are two classic hot wound Toaster pickups for your classic Rickenbacker jangles. The Rickenbacker 480XC comes with a vintage-style reissue case.
