I was close,but didn't read the info carefully enough to catch all the details. Also, interesting to note that it has the older spelling of the company name, Rickenbacher.


"1934 to 1949: "Rickenbacher" is spelled with an "h", not "k" in the "bacher" portion of the name.
1950 to present: "Rickenbacker" spelled with a "k". "

So,since they first appeared in 1946, I guess that narrows the dating down to 1946 - 1949.

Edit - Biggest clue is the width of the pickup.Pre war model 59 will have a 1 1/2" pickup width. Post war model NS will have a 1 1/4" pickup width. Measure yours and let me know. Then I can check and get some idea as to what it's worth.

Also,it may not be that early of a model because as the site above says:

"1932 to 1954 serial numbers
Serial numbers on these early models are unreliable. Some dating can be done by patent numbers printed on the guitar. This would be the earliest possible date of the instrument. "

Without photos or detailed info, we'd all just be guessing what you've got..

As Spud says, an original Aluminium Frypan is worth some pretty serious dough, followed by the bakelite B6 models, also quite valuable, but Rickenbacker also marketed many "budget" steels that fetch only a fraction of the price of those mentioned...

Got some photos you can post ?

Also, serial number would help..1931 is VERY early in Ricky company production..again, would love to see a pic, could then help for sure !
Cheers.
