Gold Nameplate and Pickguard for 4001/C64?

Post by mojo_jojo »

Can these be ordered from RIC? Do you still have to trade in the old TRC?

I believe you can only get the white TRC, and I'm not sure about the pickguard, but you might have better luck with pickguardian

You won't be able to get a gold one from RIC. TRCs require the same color and type (modern, vintage) be traded in.

Yes, about 6-8 months ago. Current swap fee is $50.00; I suppose you paid $25.00 back then.

Whoa,,,so if I send a new white one in, I cant get a black one?

I'm really thinking of ordering a Jetglo 4003 but only if I can put black plastic on her.

I recently traded a $50.00 and a black 4004 truss rod cover for a V63 truss rod cover, but I do think the gold ones are off limits.
