I thought you were having a problem seeing it for the fact that the "slacks" worn in the picture had burned out your eyes.

lemon oil doesn't belong, just is a little kinky.
I don't recommend lemon oil for these instruments...see what happens.

more of the 620 gone wild series....

OK, so I finally got my TRC, and Figured out that some Rickenbacker summertime pics were in order...Get the Lemon oil ready...

YAY! The guy that I bought my 620 from, actually called me... he found the original TRC! I thought for sure if he found it, that he'd sell it on ebay. And it is a standard, so it has no model number on it. Maybe the first few didn't have the model number on it, as they were a new model?
anyway ...

Maybe ya'll have a picture of these strings being played? J/K

.... I used the little rubber tips from cheap clothes hangers on my saddle adj screws so I don't cut my wild hand.

.... as you were

That is great! Very nice picture...... and on another note, always good to see ricks in Tel Aviv!

Here are a couple from a benefit for breast cancer.

I got one of these beasties at a flea market a few months back. I plugged it in and got some great sounds for about 10 minutes. Then, nothing. The lights all come on, but not even a whisper from it. Is there something I should know about these? I thought I'd ask before tearing into it and cleaning ...

I had one, it played great, of course it needed a nice setup. They are very durable as I threw mine across the stage in a fit of anger, took it like a champ. But I would save my money for something nice, rather dabble in that market again. I think I got mine for 100.00. I did not like the p-bass ...

the Allparts bridge is most defiantly Chinese, However, Gibson uses Korean, not Chinese parts. Gotoh is Japan and is nicer.

here is another of me playing my '77 ric in Tampa. Last gig I brought it, and during sound check it developed a short, so I played my Aerodyne. Next gig should be the ric again, 3 weeks.

I love the Chrome!

I have one on my 4001, I don't care, but the Parts company I work for looked at it and laughed. They said something in Korean that equals "cheap". But I was in a pinch, and there ya go.

No sharp edges, and I put lighter strigs on my basses this AM, and wow, what a differance! I maybe playing my rics more live!
