Re: 360/12C63 question
Every c63 TRC since July 2021 has "MADE IN USA" on it, so that was a permanent change.

Re: 360/12C63 question
Great catch Kenny!
Looking through the register, it looks like the new TRCs were phased in during the July 2021 batch of c63s - i.e., some of them from that batch have the Made in USA and some don't.

Re: The John Paul Jones Rickenbacker
I got to play it once! My recollection is that it had a massive shim under the tailpiece - a piece of pickguard cut to size. Not that it matters :wink: :lol: but I take full credit for being the first person to correctly identify that the bass was indeed the one JPJ was playing in that grainy photo ...

Re: Girls With Rics
Blu was an acquaintance of mine before she really blew up. IIRC that’s a 4001 Azureglo and it was one of her first basses.
She is the real deal.

Re: Is it happening? A new 4005?!
4005s_2385_med .jpg Probably a silly question, but what's up with the guard on the bass 2nd from the left? That was my bass - as I recall, there was a crack running between the pickups and the large pickguard was covering it up. Note that in the photo, it is also fretless. Dale fixed it up and it w...

Re: Rickenbacker.com has been offline recently
So, my new 325c64 arrived today. No Owners Manual included - gives you a QR code to access Owner's Manual. Click on QR code and what do I get? The website that isn't working. Is it unreasonable to expect to either have an Owners Manual included with the guitar or a QR code that actually takes me to...

Re: Who uses the damper?
I did, until I realised that I could stick together several layers of the adhesive sponge displayed in the link below, until reaching the desired height. Then you can apply it and take it away in 2 seconds, as needed https://www.leroymerlin.it/guide-alla-scelta/come-scegliere-paraspifferi-e-guarniz...

The first photo is of a Fender Coronado XII, the second is a Fender XII.

Re: 300 series return to 21 frets
Everyone seems to focus on the aesthetics of the new 21-fret models. Personally, I see no improvement, per se, of 21 frets. If anything, with 53 years of history behind the 24-fret versions, and me looking at my own 24-fret Ric's for the past 19 years, the new versions look a bit odd to me. That be...

Re: The Carpenters - You'll Love Me [1967]
Obviously it's tough to tell, but it reminds me a little more of a Fender XII. I'm hearing the "traditional" octave-first stringing (as compared to a Rick), and it does sound a little darker to my ears.

“Ostrich” tuning. All strings tuned to the same pitch.
