"Flat" both describes the string AND how it sounds. Plus the old ones are slightly too much tension for older Rick 12s, compared to roundwound strings. And the last time I installed a set of TIs on a friend's guitar, two of the high strings snapped immediately after tuning up to pitch. A ...

Re: 360/12 re-fret options and tech recommendations

I can refret, and have done so (on a vintage Fender, no less, as described by Collin - not the same guitar). Also did my own '67 330, but that involved more work (leveling the fretboard because of...

Re: Current 4005 bass toasters
I imagine the 00030 pickups are being used. Same as the 00031 but surface mount rather than pickguard-mounted.

Re: Variac or Step up transformer?
Lazarus thread time! Collin and I were texting about this topic, and while it appears Don Butler is no longer registered here, maybe you all have some insight. In the interest of maximizing the lifespan and performance of my vintage AC30, I was looking at picking up one of these: https://www.homedep...

Re: 360/6 & 360/12 in walnut

Re: Knobs
My Rick guitars I gig with the most: Silver knobs, but the blend knob swapped out for a "vintage" with the line, so I can see it under stage lights. Go figure.
I agree with Collin, both that the silver tops are cooler, and that it's probably a supply issue.
