Re: Accent arm fixing

Thanks for the picture. I've used two thick rubber washers for the time being and used as bit of locktite on the thread. It works okay, the screw still turns but it moves back and forth with the arm.

Accent arm fixing

I've been wondering if I've been attaching the arm to the accent vibrato properly. All I do is fit the arm, chrome washer (I think I found this from something else) then tighten the screw tight. I like it so it doesn't move, but that restricts getting to the controls, and if I move it it just gets r...

Re: Paul Weller's Jam Rickenbackers on display 2015

The exhibition is now open in Liverpool for sometime until August I think. The pictures I've seen of it so far show some new items, and a few more Rics to look at!

Re: Vintage mod schematic

Thanks for both of your replies. After a night of trial and error, and finally reading a diagram online properly, I got it right. And it sounds great! Also iiipopes I read a lot of your posts in other threads, so thanks for that. Does anyone notice any differences with different amps? With a tiny so...

Vintage mod schematic

I've tried registering with the other rick forum which had a thread about a schematic but it's taking ages for my account to be authorized! Does anyone have one they can send me? Or even a description? I've currently ...

Re: Rickenbacker with Marshall Amps

Similar post to Collin.. But a 1975 Lead and Bass combo, and a 620, not as nice as the colour of your Rick. I do struggle slightly with the presence controls when using pedals, and having to use a power soak to use it at home. But its growing on me everyday. http://i1266.photobucket.com/albums/jj521...

Re: Paul Weller's Jam Rickenbackers on display 2015

A great read and some nice photos on this thread. I luckily met Weller at the exhibition and couldn't stop shaking for hours after. It was weird as I was also collecting a Marshall Lead and Bass combo, the amp he uses and has used live for years now, the same day. It was really nice meeting him with...
