My understanding, three. My understanding four. Bass looks right to me, even the pickguard. Looks like it might be early to mid 90s.... It may be the angle, but I thought the guard on my '90 looks slightly more blobby. qdxcv5iccylt19b262ph.jpg PS. please excuse the lack of proper JPS knob alignment...

That was my understanding too.

My understanding, three.

I bought the Ric driver and had someone thin the walls so it fits under. Having said that, on occasion I’ve taken the easy route and gone to a pro. I have a long-shank multi-bit screwdriver that works really well as the whole shaft is thin, similar to this one (it's the perfect size for the truss r...

Wish I could give you some kind of answer but my only experience with RI horseshoe pickup is with two of the earlier, hotter ones; regarding hi-gains, the two basses that I had that came with them were replaced with scatterwound toasters upon arrival.

Congrats! Looks really nice.

He certainly hasn't been around here in a long time that I recall.

I wonder if Woody has been in contact with Sergio; Woody and his partner moved to Portugal a couple years ago.

I see that his last post was on 01/17/20.

That means that someone "rummaged" through websites and/or stores collecting data to add instruments to the register. I always thought (previous to learning this) that the owners of these instruments could add them to the register.

This.

Like these, but the "new" modern scatterwound variety.

I like the "snowflakes" all around your head.

I have recently purchased several new Rickenbacker guitars and tried to add them to the registry. However, I am unable to add them as they have already been registered from the dealer website. Email sent to "admin at rickresource . com" (to the proper email address) come back as being und...

It's interesting, I had a '92 FG V63 years ago that also came from Japan.

Wonder what's the deal with FG V's and Japan?

In Japan FG = Fire-breathing Godzilla
