To give you that extra fret? It's like the pocket is too narrow for the neck and it just kinda hangs off http://www.rickresource.com/register/user_images/49429/5-fullsize.jpg https://reverb-res.cloudinary.com/image/upload/s--0W316_zk--/a_exif,c_limit,e_unsharp_mask:80,f_auto,fl_progressive,g_south,...

Does anyone have any information on why the neck hangs over the neck pocket on the ric 3000?

Here are some pics of what I found when I opened the case: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v284/fiendfucking/worm%20gear%20TOP_zpsqgxsixii.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v284/fiendfucking/inside%20case_zpsv7vywod4.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v284/fiendfucking/broken%20worm%20teeth...

used a pin to tap it open, opened a lot easier than i thought it would.
somehow a few of the teeth on the worm gear are broken.
might make a new shaft or just buy a new tuner.

So to open the back I should take a hammer and pin and tap the pins holding it closed?

Any have any tips for opening the grover bass tuners for rics? I got one that spins pretty freely and would like to see what's up
