Grommets it has. I'll try the foam and see what happens. I just want to add that I think the toaster pups make a great Punk guitar too. They have a fabulously unique trebley scream when used with a lot of gain. The treble gives it an awesome sound when used with a Wah pedal too. 'Very British.

I too have been thinking about getting the 350v63, but what scares me away is the feedback. I have a 381 that I play through a Bogner 60W tube, and I haven't found a way to crank it up without taming that terrible microphonic squeal. However, it sounds great at low volume and using the pre amp ...

I've trying to creating my own unique sound based on a Rickenbaker. To me there a too many musicians trying to emulate other artists' sound or trying to find that perfect Strat, Gibson, or Jackson sound, and by doing so they all end up sounding the same. I'm trying to find my own unique sound buy ...

I purchased the 381/12 Blueburst from Virginia that is registered here at Rickresource. If you want to updated the information on this Rick, please let me know what I need to do.
