Re: Rickenbacker.com has been offline recently

Yeah, it looks like the company forum has been discontinued on the new website.

RIC Boutique

I just tried to purchase 4 sets of strings and a guitar strap from the RIC Boutique. $75 purchase price. When I went to finish the purchase, it told me that the shipping cost from RIC to me in Long Island, NY would be $41 via FedEx. $41? Shipping and handling of my RIC guitar from Sweetwater, by com...

New 325c64 TRC screws

I just received a brand new 325c64 from a well-known dealer. I noticed the truss rod cover was a little loose, so I tightened down the screws. I noticed photos of other new 325c64's and it seems those have slotted screws securing the TRC, but mine has phillips head screws. I know it's a minor thing,...

Re: Rickenbacker.com has been offline recently

So, my new 325c64 arrived today. No Owners Manual included - gives you a QR code to access Owner's Manual. Click on QR code and what do I get? The website that isn't working. Is it unreasonable to expect to either have an Owners Manual included with the guitar or a QR code that actually takes me to ...

Re: Rickenbacker.com has been offline recently

I'm surprised that the company disables its website (with the exception of the Boutique section) for over 2 months. If a revamped website is being constructed, I'd imagine the new website is ready to go before shutting down the old one. A few days for the change over, maybe. But months? RIC sure doe...

Re: Rickenbacker 370-12 Roger McGuinn questions

8mileshigh - you may have been right. Repair guy says he thinks the output jack was the problem. The tight space was causing the contacts to connect when no cable inserted. He worked on the jacks and says the battery no longer showing drain when unplugged. Fingers crossed that this will do it. Happy...

Re: Rickenbacker 370-12 Roger McGuinn questions

Wim - Don't have guitar here at the moment so I can't check to see if drain occurs in non-compressor settings, but the Owner's Manual does say that it is important to remove the guitar cord when not in use: "The circuit will switch off automatically when the guitar cord is unplugged, in order t...

Re: Rickenbacker 370-12 Roger McGuinn questions

John Hall - yes, I've got a lithium battery in it now but still concerned about possible battery drain problem. When I bought the guitar seller said it was a new battery but battery nearly dead upon arrival and I experienced all those low volume/distorted sound problems on Settings 4, 5, and 6 (the ...

Rickenbacker 370-12 Roger McGuinn questions

I recently purchased a 1988-built 370-12 Roger McGuinn Limited Edition. Does anyone out there have experience with this guitar, especially the useful life of the battery? I have the impression that the standard akaline battery doesn't last long, but I am not sure what to expect. Will the battery dra...
