Thanks

How much can I expect to earn from my toasters? New ones are gonna set me back 450.

Any good, competent pickup guy can do this. If you have any soldering skills, and lots of patience and care, you could do this, too. Without knowing where you are located we can't really provide useful referrals, though. I’m not competent. I’m in LA area. I figure I could ship them out if necessary

Hello all.

I need my 3 toasters unwound. Who can I send these to?

Thanks

Thanks guys!

Hello,

I have a 1991 Rose Morris 1998 (3 pickups) with toasters on the way. I'm sure these are the "hot" ones, right?

What should these things measure so I can unwind them?

thanks!

I'm just perusing the normal sites. I see examples from 1991 and the 1998 (the year).

I am assuming that the pickups on the newer models were placed closer together and further away from the neck to allow greater strength between the neck and the body-yes?

Hello. I'm looking for a 1998 reissue. I've noticed that on some there is a space between the bridge and the bridge pickup. On others, there is no space at all. The pickup and bridge are touching each other.


what's up with that?

thanks.

Mark: Congrats on the new guitar. This one is yours presume. http://rocknrguitars.com/product/george-harrison-1963-rickenbacker-360-12c63/ The frets are a distinctive feature of the Rickenbacker brand. They will last for years. One of my RICS had the frets redone with "Fender" sized fret ...

Hi.

Just bought my 3rd Rick. A C63 (for the second time).

I bought it from rocknrguitars.com if you want to see pics of it.

I have to say this is as perfect as a guitar can get. I am curious about the short frets though. How long will it be until I need to get new ones?
