Re: New Rick owner...need some help from you experienced guys!!

Yeah, I think you're right. Sounds like its not worth it. I'm going to play with it as is and see how it goes. If I want a change in the future, I'll look into getting what was probably originally in there. In the meantime, I think I'm actually going to like the extra texture that this hb provides ...

Re: New Rick owner...need some help from you experienced guys!!

Haha! Wow. So you're saying I'm a long way from home from my tele? Ok, so if I get this straight, if all of my 4 traditional volumes are turned all the way up (fully clockwise) and the 5th knob is half way, in the middle position then the blend is all bridge and half neck? Is that right? And the ...

And it depends on where I have the mysterious "5th knob" set (forgive me, again this is my first Rick :) )....with the 5th knob wide open there seems to be more brightness in the push position. I'll take some pics in a minute ...

Re: New Rick owner...need some help from you experienced guys!!

Ok, let me put some pics together. Gimmie a sec. In the meantime, let me ask this: In all of my other experience with humbuckers and single coils together, the hb's are usually in the bridge with the single in the neck position. With Ricks, is it common to configure them with the hb in the neck? Are ...

New Rick owner...need some help from you experienced guys!!

I have to admit that I have always been in love with these guitars and finally, I got my first Rick yesterday. It's a 360 Fireglo and it's absolutely gorgeous, but I am a little perplexed by a few things that I was hoping some of you more experienced guys could help me out with. I bought it used ...
