Lemmy has a story in the latest Guitar World's Bass Guitar mag. There is a large picture on the table of contents page, of him with his LK bass. The weird thing is the TRC looks like it says "Rickenbastard" on it. What's up with that?

I'd still like to know the story behind this TRC

It's Lemmy. There really is no other story. The word "*******" is part of the bands history and vocabulary.

It's all part of Lem's sense of whimsy, just like the renaming of his amplifiers.

It looks to me like there is also a string retainer between the E and A strings on the headstock for some reason...

The original name of Motorhead was *******. His manager made him change it because they wouldn't get on Top of the Pops with a name like *******.
