Re: RIO PICTURES
I can't remember his name but this forumite brought two very nice Ric six stringers... CIMG1631.jpg Ya gotta love the Toasters1 Those would be Chip Ficyk's. The only other 480 I've ever seen in the flesh besides mine. And it's mapleglo! By the way, great pics, Steve. Especially of those guys drinki...

Re: RIO Thank You Thread
Thank you to Jeff and Shari as well. What a great event. I couldn't believe how fast time flew by and I didn't get to play nearly as many as I wanted. It was also great meeting all you cool people (and Peter :D ) I also wish I would have played the walnut 4002 while I had the chance! So many basses,...

Re: RIO PICTURES
I'm still wiping the drool off my chin... Plus, it was great meeting everybody. Next time I'll make sure I don't have a gig on the same day. And Peter, I've instructed my wife to never open the door for left-handed Englishmen.

Re: New to forum
Wow. Great to have you here, Bob. I've been a Bears fans since the 80's. Everyone should definitely check out the Live at Club Cafe DVD (and everything else). A killer version of King Crimson's "Red" and one of my fav Bears' tunes, "Caveman." I love the line: "It's good to b...

Re: Newbie here, with a question...
Hi Mike, Welcome to the forum. The serial number decoder is at http://www.rickenbacker.com/service_serials.asp . I bought my first Rick (MG 4001) right before I graduated from high school in 1977. It was gigged for years and is definitely not in excellent shape! There's a lot of knowledgeable and ve...

Re: for my birthday, i bought this...
I have a red '85 4003 with BT that is absolutely wonderful. It plays perfectly and sounds great. I bagged it on a $700 BIN a while back. I also have a red '85 4003 with BT as well. It's got the slimmest neck of all my Ricks. I always loved the red/black trim combo on the 4003. Doesn't work on 330's...

Re: Question for 4002 owners....
Also, can anyone let me know just where I can find actual 4002 recordings? Thomas, Here's a recording I did with my 4002 back in '06 with the Ryan Humbert Band. http://www.ryanhumbert.com/clients/rhb/music/10%20Trampoline%20(Band%20Demo).mp3 I believe I used the 4002 on the entire "Well, Whate...

Re: 4002 alert....
I have my eye on it...are those tuners correct? anything else look replaced? Depending on how the auction goes..I should be goin' for it I just took a look at mine and those tuners are the same. Everything else looks ok to me. I always wanted a mapleglo one (mine's walnut). Good luck on the auction.

Re: This is a faker, I think?
A few things look weird to me too but I'm hardly an expert. What makes you guys positive this is a fake?
