Re: Rickenbacker electronic mods - anyone?

Here is my former '80 4003.

Hmmm, that bass looks familiar.

Funny thing, I have an 80's 360 that a previous owner rewired such that the neck pickup is muffled, the pots are not linear and the blend knob is reversed. It sounds fine with just the bridge pickup. I took it to the local shop today ...

Rickenbacker electronic mods - anyone?

Just curious to see what everybody thinks. As a guitar tech, all I do all day is modify just about any guitar made. Except Rickenbackers...most Rick owners seem to be a bit uneasy about changing anything on their guitars. But I'd like to see what Rick fans from all over have done to their ...

Ha! Wouldn't that be nice? If any of the RIC higher-ups are reading this, I'd like to go ahead and get that 360v64 in white with white trim. Thanks and you're welcome.

Yes, that's Amber Fireglo. Anybody else have any Rick-inspired ink?

Yes. Perfect. This is how older guitars should look - and this is not how a brand new guitar should look. File me under anti-relic.

Frown Pow'r (my band) new song, new video, 360/12 content

I posted this elsewhere...I think this is a better place for this video.

Anyway, here is a new song - it's really not a cover, it's unnamed, as far as I know. I usually play this song on my Telecaster, but since I had broken most of the strings on the 3rd song (I don't really play guitar, I kinda ...

Show me some beat-up Ricks

Am I the only one who thinks Rickenbackers look really good with significant wear? I'm not talking about abuse, but honest wear and lots of it. Anybody got any pictures of some well-loved Rickenbackers?

Re: Need help dating a 4001S


Holy smokes, that is gorgeous! And just the other day I was thinking I'd never seen a green or turquoise Ric.

BTW Jeff that's one purty bass. The one I'm probably gonna buy needs a little love... :(

Thanks, guys! I got lucky on that one. It was an ebay score, and it's pretty much perfect ...

Re: Need help dating a 4001S

Ohhhhhhhhh...I can post some pics, but it will probably be later today. But you may have answered my question already, it's definitely neck through, hi gains, no binding. Makes sense now. Thanks!
