Yep I already noticed. Impressive.
I had the same thing happen to me once with bass guitars. I'm still in rehab since there's no cure :wink:

Edit: walking around the room pretending to be Chris/Lemmy/Roger. Scared the cat and made the German Shepperd howl . :lol:

Hmmm.. my Ric is already in the registry, with a complete set of photos. Was bought on Ebay and then shipped overseas I guess.

Should I shoot somebody an email to change the ownership?

There was a lot of talk on that on the dutch basgitaarforum some time ago but it ended in a discussion wheather or not to allow people without Rickenbacker's.

Congrats on your first Rickenbacker!! I too could not get use to the pup cover so all mine are removed and replaced with Tube Ampology bezels.

RAS, I don't know what that is, can someone explain it to me?? :lol:

Seriously, I came here owning one Ric, now I have, well, way too many!! This place is full of RAS enablers!! You've been warned!!

"Klomp muziek" I guess considering what is at marktplaats (an ebay daughter) at the moment.

I am somewhat dissapointed in you Werner. You really mean you do not look on a dailly basis what Rickenbacker's are on marktplaats?
