Re: New, to me, 1980 Ric 4001 in Azure

Thanks for the feedback.

Here's my plan:

- I've ordered the TI Jazz Flats.
- I've got an email in to Pickguardian.
- I've got a email in to Rick of the Rics about harness availability. I figure I'll just get the whole thing pre-put together, spend a little extra money, but save myself the time ...

Re: New, to me, 1980 Ric 4001 in Azure

Thanks so much for all of the helpful directions guys. I really appreciate it!

I've got a few follow-up questions:

- Is the benefit of buying a pre-built harness just the simplicity factor or is there something particularly complex about the Rick electronics setup? I'm handy with a soldering iron ...

New, to me, 1980 Ric 4001 in Azure

Hi all-

I just grabbed this 1980 AZ 4001 off CL locally and I was curious if I could get a few suggestions. This is my first Ric bass after lusting after one for many, many years. I'm a huge McCartney fan and I run a small studio and I just know this will get used plenty.

It's got a few issues I'm ...

Re: Just got my first 12-string: 98 Ric 330/12 with toasters

Thank guys! I really do love the grain pattern. I imagined I'd want a Jetglo, but this looks pretty cool.

I measured the Toasters with my meter and they read 10.68 and 10.51, so they're hotter than I expected for sure. They sound good though. Hot in the way some DeArmond pups are hot.

Just got my first 12-string: 98 Ric 330/12 with toasters

Hi all. I've been lurking a while after having traded into an 1989 Ric 610 and quickly falling in love with the sound and feeling of the guitar. I've clearly missed an important food group of the guitar world. Being a huge Beatles and Smiths junkie, it wasn't a long way to go to want a Ric 330 or ...
