Re: 1937 Model 59 Rickenbacher LapSteel Volume Pot ID

I’m researching the same issue. I think it’s 100k, but I’m trying to verify that

Re: Acquired a G5220 to join my Ric

An outstanding pairing!

I use my 5220 with the Rickenbacker lap steel all the time. They seem to stay out of each other’s way on the sonic spectrum

Re: what RIC 12 is Steve Howe playing? pic

This guitar appears to have high gain pickups rather than toaster tops. Is that unusual for a double bound 360/12?

Rick-o-sound substitute

Original ROS boxes are scarce, and Rich-e-split seems to be out of business. Has anyone tried the RattleSnake Cables splitter? It’s on sale this weekend for $25.

Re: What's The Attraction To Flatwounds On The 12 Strings?

I had Pyramids on my 360/12 with hi-gain pups. I didn’t like them. I wonder if they sound better with toaster tops, through something really bright like a Vox amp. For my rig and sound, it was not happening.

Re: Very Early Rickenbacker Steel (Prototype?)

I’ve seen those on reverb and eBay. They generally go for less $$ than a panda B6, but appear to be the same in all but color and badge.

I wanted to change the knobs on my grey Janglebox to Rick or J-bass style knobs, but this pot shafts are really tiny! Oh well

Re: John Fogarty 325

Sorry to resurrect a zombie thread, but....

Did Rickenbacker ever make or consider making a Fogerty signature 325 with 2 toasters, PAF, and Bigsby?
