Pre-1984 truss rod question
Ok. So. I’m familiar with the truss rod system in the subject line, and how to straighten the neck on models from this timeframe. Very familiar.

Re: Tom's use of a Rick double-neck for American Girl video

Re: Tom's use of a Rick double-neck for American Girl video
He's posing with it on the back cover of Hard Promises, and on the inner sleeve of Full Moon Fever, for what it's worth.

Re: Gene Clark
Two thoughts: 1. A few of the rock star types I’ve known who are known for playing Ricks seem to have *a* pickup or setting they use, and that’s it.

The quote is NOT from the GP article.
