The definative way to string up a Rickenbacker 12

[scotty]

OK on the RRF and Emma decided to enhance my lugs.Its at this time i need to do something constructive.


Ok time for a restring on the 620/12 im using.Ok folks ive taken off all the strings and cleaned down with bleach,shoe polish and a stiff brush.(im into detail and boot polish is great on the frets. Paul W gave the idea but told me not to tell anyone so dont use it unless he tells ya)


Ok this restring is boring i need a chillax. Dont overdo its a 12 for goodness sake! I recommend a good quaity Rum `n` coke

Right time for a read of something light and a quiet moment while the kids run riot.


Right meanwhile back at the Kitchen i find that a good packet of Jaffa cakes keeps the guitar in perfect balance.

[scotty]

Ok the jaffa cakes are working a treat and the guitar is given a good clean from top to tail

Good thing you showed the bottle of Rum, Scotty, initially I thought you were drinking from that bottle of bleach. (Then again, who's to say you didn't add a jigger).

[scotty]

A small trim and were nearly ready for tuning up!


And were ready to tune up! give it a good bash and re tune for a while


And this chore is over.Its as simple as that!


Youll never need to ask again.

next time scotty dont use a stiff brush. a wire brush works the best to get that grime off

Cheers Jerry! I was thinking paint stripper to clean the grime cause the bleach is just not hitting the mark!

you could always fill the bathtub with 3 gallons of water 4 gallons of bleach and 2 gallons of gas or petro in your neck of the woods mix it all up and let the 620 soak for about 24 hours that should do the trick
