And that's from the guy who wrote the book about them!

We men, always have excuses for these sorts of things

Could be Confusing Rickenbacker Specifications Disease? Or do you just not remember which disease it is you have?

Nah, you didn't get my joke

. Think sexist and horrible. I can't say more as it would be totally inappropriate

There are, of course, some jack plates that do not necessarily indicate authenticity - specifically those swapped out from another Rick by unscrupulous luthiers...

OK, got it. My memory is a little fuzzy on that issue.

Hello all
Yeah it was quite a drive but completely worth it. Gigged it a week later and loved it completely. It's quite a change for me as all my other basses are 5 string, active and my main bass is a 35 inch scale. So I'm relearning stuff in different positions. Worth it though!!
The band thought it was great too. Love the sound, look and feel. Why did I not get one before?

Have posted a new topic, doubt it's new to you chaps, but I'm hoping for some advice on how I can boost the output of the e string which seems lower than the adg?

Will send info to register it to me and some pics too when I get chance.

Cheers all, greetings from Somerset UK!
Steve

Very cool! I just bought a custom instrument from a recently retired luthier in Pilton - small world. Glad you are enjoying the bass!
