Thanks for the info I was going by the drawing posted on the RIC homepage and just wondering to what extent this was changed. Looks like the 12AX7 was used on this one the socket looks original. Just replaced the tubes, put on a three prong power cord replaced the original speaker with a Weber 8A ...

HI,
I just bought an old M8 amp on an impulse.
After I got it home I took it apart and did a search on the net found that the transformer was replaced with a much lager one and it now has a ECC83 (12AX7) instead of a 6AV6.

thanks~ I'll read up on it......

What's the "washer procedure"?

thanks for the replies.
I found out that the answer is not really, the HIPSHOT bridge has four mounting screws to the 401C64's three. So my choice would be just use two screws which I don't really feel comfortable about because 1) the weight and 2) the distance between the flat bottom of the ...

I know the hipshot replacement bridge has been discussed before but I can't seem to find the answer to my question.... will the hipshot bridge fit on a 4001C64?
is there any drilling or alinement required?

a little up-date... I pulled the pickguard to check if I could see why the neck pickup was at such a steep front to rear angle.

Thanks for the tips

thanks for the photo Jps of course Mine isn't that bad.
I guess I was just expecting more with everyone always saying how good the Qty. is on theses instruments.
On the plus side the bass is very comfortable, it is easy to play and sounds just great through the Ampeg B100R can't wait to try a set ...

Sorry if this has been covered….
I have a brand new 4001C64 and the horseshoes don’t line up one is slightly forward or is that the other is slightly back?.... well either way. Also one is slightly higher then the other.
