Rickresource Rickenbacker Forum

I’d be interested in any recommendations for a good tech in the UK also.

Would this cable work as a rick-o-sound alternative?

Thanks guys thats really useful.

Hi guys, Did 4001s in the 70s come without binding on the body, but with neck binding,ros and shark fin inlays ? This one sold recently here in the UK described as rare. Never seen one like this before. It’s from 1977. It’s on the register. http://www.rickresource.com/register/viewitem.php?id=60880&...

Thanks Pete, will do. Have found a couple of 4003 at Coda which might be NOS 2017, but need to check. Cheers rob

Looking for some advice on value of a 365 made in 1968 which has had a bigsby added, refretted, and at some time had different tuners(holes filled and showing. Rest of it is stated as original with pots dated 1967. Stated as aIt’s up for £3000 about $3900. It’s come up for sale here in the UK and is...

I think clueless is an apt description. He was definitely referring to the 4003, and not the ROS box. He probably was trying to pushing me to buy the 4003S that was the only model he had in.

Whilst trying out a 4003S yesterday, the dealer here in the UK told me that, going forward new 4003 we’re going to loose the stereo rick-o-sound output. I was surprised to hear this. Is this correct?

I’d be very interested to hear how you get on with this. I’ve been having the same thoughts about my ‘92 330 , being a little darker in tone than I thought it should be. Let us know how you get on.

Looks like Tim at SoundAffects has something interesting on its way to Ormskirk here in the UK!

Many thanks Simon and Brian for you replies. Hadn't thought about checking out the register so will do, nor the truss rods. I'm hopefully going to get to the dealers this week. Completely agree about needing to bond with the guitar. Thanks again Just checked the register, and by the grain pattern, i...

I've always steered clear of buying a vintage rick as I know don't what to look out for, and worried about ending up with a bit of an expensive mistake. However, for no other reason than it being the same year as I was born, I spotted a very clean looking 1967 mapleglo 360 in a dealer shop here in t...

I noticed that too. Would be interested in how many are in this second GC order. I was lucky enough to pick up one of the first 50 and it is defiantly the best rick I have played.

Looking for some advice on the following. I've noticed that the finish on the neck of my '92 330 looks to be lifting around the frets. The finish looks pretty thick on the lower frets where the lifting is worse. You can't feel it and it doesn't seemed to have come through to the surface. I'm pretty ...

Many thanks Collin for the reply, this sounds like a real possibility for me. Cheers
