Lightshow on Letterman Last Night
Anyone catch the David Letterman show Wednesday night ? Roger McGuinn sat in with the Paul Shaffer band and was using a Lightshow in the glimpse that I caught. Any more details anybody can share ?

WOW ! Neck better than twice the ohmmage as the bridge (i.e. if ohm readings are relative as opposed to the old watts = loudness rule) - no wonder you have such an unbalanced output. I've never tried to get readings on my 480, it's fairly balanced as is (although I did adjust the pickups' heights at...

Pickup Selector Switch "noise"
My '81 480 has developed some "noise" when I use the pickup toggle switch (and I use it a lot). Any ideas or solutions would be greatly appreciated.

Can anybody provide info on the different PU's ? Specs that would highlight the differences, perhaps ? And compared to the new humbuckers on the 600 series guitars ? I'm not sure what specs would do that, but if maybe Mark the MD or John Hall could comment I and others could possibly be enlightened.

Peter; try Rudy's at 723 7 Av 4th floor (48th & 49th St) tel# 212 391-1699. They just did a fret dressing/set up for me on my 480 and I was very happy with the work that the tech Vinny did.
There is also another guy in Brooklyn, Bob Jones at 718 965-6786(drfrets@aol.com).

Trace 480 pickguard to create template
Hello again Mark. Could you tell me what I would need to do to trace a pickguard template of my 480 for another Rick forum 480 owner who wants to restore his to original ? (see thread in Rickenbackers for Sale - 450 or 610 needed). I just had mine fret dressed and set-up and do not want to affect th...

Mark: Thanks for the clarifications. I thought the fretboard was Brazilian rosewood because I seem to remember the salesperson where I ordered it told me that. Mike: Thanks for the name and number. I'll check him out next time I have the frets dressed as I plan on following Mark's advice to have it ...
