Re: A question about truss rods

Don't know how much of this kind of stuff you have done but Forumite Joey has a nice set of instructional videos and all here: http://www.rickresource.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=107 Little things like the type of truss can make a difference on how you adjust the rods.

Re: A question about truss rods

V63? It looks like the G side rod has been forced down given the washer looks bent and the spacer bar is pushed nto the neck on that side a bit. Probably would be a good idea to totally loosen the rods and let the neck sit for a couple of days, then start over. If the bass played fine previous to y...

A question about truss rods

Hi everyone! Time to time I have neck bow problems and buzzing frets (especially after when we moved to a new house). I took my rick to a luthier last year but actually noone around here conveys enough trust that I can leave a rickenbacker, so I am trying to solve it on my own. How do you think I sh...

Re: Used Rickenbacker prices

Hmm. There's a lot "wrong" with that one in Turkey. The photos won't enlarge for me, but it looks bogus. The first thing I did was to check your book to find out in which years' rick this one may correspond :) Now since I have the opportunity, I really want to thank you personally for tha...

Well apparently in Turkey the price trend goes in the reverse direction.

Re: What about an app?

A mobile app would be nice. It still works on a smart phone, but's not ideal. These days on on my phone more than I am a computer. I've used Taptalk, but it's not perfect either. Yes this was my point. It will never be a real mobile experience until there is an app. My initial thought of a mobile a...

Re: What about an app?

Some of the forums I'm a member of are available via the Tapatalk app on my phone which presents the forums in a mobile friendly manner. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tapatalk Apparently it can be installed by a forum owner in 15-20 mins (see https://tapatalk.com/start-here.php) and once done anyon...

Re: What about an app?

Hi Ozan. An app for what exactly? the forum? the register? The big question is how long would it take to create it and how many users will use it. Unfortunately there are less users than there used to be. Facebook is slowly chirping away all the good stuff although I admit - I would take a forum ov...

Re: What about an app?

How much does that cost? There's that volunteer talk again :lol: :) As long as I am useful, I am willing to put my effort on it. How much it will cost, I have no idea. For my part I won't cost anything. In fact for the things I learnt from here I owe a lot to this forum :) Just we need other volunt...

Re: What about an app?

Guys, I am not fully able to follow you on this, but the thing is for me that I am holding my phone at least 6 hours a day, an app would be very nice. I work in a department that we create mobile finance applications, but I'm an analyst I don't code. I can contribute on the design, interface and use...

What about an app?

Hi all,
This may sound a bit out of the tune but why doesn't rickresource have a mobile application? Wouldn't it be nice to have a mobile app on our phones so that we could check everything easily? Did someone think about it before? Is there a reason that this app does not exist?

Need some advice about a home studio set up

Hi there, Normally I'd post here about my '99 4003, but this time I need your valuable suggestions on something else.. Sorry in advance if it will sound a bit out of the context :) We want to set up something like a home studio, that we will be able to record a bass guitar and a drum set, and receie...

Re: neck bow/twist of my 4003

I was horrified at the thought of such drastic work being done on my 1975 4001, but afterwards you couldn't even notice that my fretboard had been levelled. What looked like a big problem seemed to require the removal of only a minimal amount of material to get it back in shape. I hope it all goes ...
