Re: Anyone Hear From Paul Lately?
I'm having trouble getting in touch with Paul. Can someone PM an alternate email to his managing director address? Or a phone number even? Thanks.

Re: COOL WHEELS--NOT!!!
I've got a 911 and you'd be surprised how very well it does work but it is also with a very different feel and dynamic. When you consider everything (initial cost, initial quality, reliability, performance, repair costs, efficiency, aesthetics) it is absolutely the best sports car value on the plan...

Re: New Rickenbacker Colours in the UK
Why is everyone walking on eggshells and making excuses. Ric hasn't done anything new in ages. This is a fact. The current line-up is great - and always has been great - but there's nothing new. For better or for worst. The backlog explanation for the constantly delayed "colour of the year"...

Re: 4001c64's in Canada.
L&M's prices are way inflated. You'd do better buying from a US dealer and having it shipped up, or hitting up ebay.

Re: History of the 360 WB
Here's my fancy '91 360v64. The neck is superb.

Re: Ric Telebass???
I really like the body/pickguard/finish combo but the headstock w/ trc looks really out of place. Maybe a 4003 headstock would help rickenize it?

It looks like it might have a wider neck?

Re: Fortune 3301
Haha nice ad - someone got a steal. That's basically a custom shop bass that sold for half the value of a new 4003. PLus the 3001 neck is creamy, albeit a bit heavy and neck-dive prone - but that's the nature of the beast.

Re: More rickenfakers
The top one looks like an overweight lp junior, and the bottom one just looks like pure garbage. Well in all fairness, they both look like pure garbage.

Re: Anyone heard from Dale Fortune?
HA! Dale told me he would do some work on a 4003 for me. When I was ready to send it to him, I never heard from him. No returned emails or calls. That's messed up. Dude, what email are you contacting? He doesn't use the fortuneguitars email anymore, and is very active/responsive on a different foru...
