I'm thinking about installing an Accent Vibrato on my 381/12; my Vox 12 has a whammy bar and it works great!

What kind of Spam?

Actually my name's Paul, not Greg. :) The Mastery Bridge is not the reason I can use the Accent with a shallow break angle. I've had up to seven six string Ricks (Presently I have five).All of them have Accent vibrato units. But only two of them have Mastery Bridges. All my Ricks have a similarly sh...

Fair point: I wasn't thinking about 60s era Ricks-I don't own any of that era; I should have qualified that. My experience is with modern era, and middle-era Ricks `79-ish forward. I was thinking of guys who want to put an Accent on a new or recent Rick and get a number of comments telling them to m...

Hmm. I wonder if it's because of the ramp angle, the smaller body size, or both, on the 350V63.

We've also engaged in KISS, AC/DC, and assorted punk insurgency sets at SoCal jams. Bwahahaha.

Really? Pauls stays in tune great and he hammers it :o It's true; I am a complete whammy bar nut, and all my six string Ricks (I have five of them, and I've downsized) have Accent VBs. I do not have tuning issues. I dive it as much as is possible, bend up, and shake the whammy. The key is to ensure...

I have a 2005 50th Anniversary`65 Fender Blackface Twin that the original Accutronics reverb tank died on. When I pulled the tank there was nothing visible to indicate the tank was dead, but when I plugged a spare Accutronics tank in from my Super, instant reverb. After a conversation with the owner...

What?! I need one.

I've had my hears set on a 4003, but since the new "S" model debuted, I'm wavering for one of these. Thinking about a Jetglo model, a Sharpie, and asking Joey to sign the pickguard: JV Signature model.

Hey, Paulie!!! Get out the check book! :mrgreen: Yeah, no kidding. I need to pass the CA Bar Exam first, but after I'm back to work at the firm, I am definitely saving my $$ for one of these. I think I'm going with Jetglo. And, yep: And silly me, I was thinking that with three Ric twelve strings al...
