chris, there are several sources for gold pickguards, including myself and pickguardian. i think dale does them, too.

the trc would have to be swapped with one from ric, and there's a $25.00 handling fee. contact kenny at ric customer service for current info on this.

Jeez, I just CAN'T go on like this!!! It's against my training!

Feel my pain! I have two Rickenbacker basses that need TRC's. Maybe I'll just make some that say IBANEZ on them.

Dane - to clarify, I believe Paul's pain has to do with a lack of capitalization and grammar by some who post here. It's nothing to do with TRC's.

This forum must be a challenge to newcomers. ("Did I ask the wrong question? Was my spelling right? Oh, I forgot capital letters!)
But that's ok, Mr. Headmaster. We'll do our best.
