Now who has a screw loose?

This is a very minor issue, but it bothers me. The left screw hole on my TRC breaks through to the truss rod adjustment cavity. Any suggestions on how to remedy this? I don't like having a screw loose.

I always quite liked the Roland Jazz Chorus amps. This one is an 80 watt ( two 40w channels) has a built-in chorus, but sounds great clean, which is what counts. I don't know what your taste in amps are, but I would love to have one of these.

This current owner would be pronounced that way....

I don't think it was modified. Routings in older instruments tend to have that appearance. If the pickups were replaced the new owner would be able to tell very easily too. I'm sure its all on the up and up. I am still skeptical about it getting the 125K though.

I don't know if anyone has mentioned this auction here but check out the Bantar!

P90s: I have to admit, I love the sound, but have always hated the way they looked. To me they look as bad when I've seen them on a Casino or other Epi. I don't even like the look of the cream colored soap bars.

I do as well, but leave those crazy banjo picks for Roger McGuinn.

No kidding. There on the wrong side of the guitar.

From the thread: http://www.rickresource.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=404486&start=0 Hey Werner, do you know where I can find schematics for push-pull pot coil tapping? Also, the push-pull pots at RIC are SPST too, aren't they? Thanks. I found this correspondence with Dane on coil tapping....

Strangers who ask for directions...

A couple of well known ones that popped into my mind:
Josie - Steely Dan
Don't Give Up - Peter Gabriel ( I'm a big Tony Levin fan)

Werner, that's a pretty good record for avoiding computer security problems. If you don't have any anti-virus software running, unless you have no contact with any other computers, I would highly recommend you go get something . Even the most careful and savvy user can occaisionally get an infection...

I have a freind who used to play one in a Genesis tribute act. Not the same as Rutherford's but it seemed to do the trick. Didn't Geddy Lee use one as well?

Used to be. And still to some extent I suppose. Wiki "Botnet" and you can see how they use things like this to wreak havok on commercial and government websites and networks. They can be used as instruments to aid in credit card theft, other types of data theft and denial of service attack...
