Chris-

See thread entitled:

Is this normal ? (bloody 4003 pic warning)

Don't go if blood makes you faint.

I was looking for a black one for my '75 Burgandyglo (see thread title "An intro, etc."). I can't go for the one that ships to U.S. only, but I may try for the other. Thanks for pointing it out.

THAT'S IT! HE SAID BURGANDY GLO! THAT'S THE COLOR! By the way, That bloody Rick was cool! How do the Bartolini's sound compaired to the stock pickup's. I wouldn't have the guts to change out the stock pickup's.

I love the Barts.....I think they maintain the overall Ric tone and add more lowend to the mix. They aren't very popular with Forum members though so you'll probably hear more negative about them than positive on this site.
It's only a few minutes with a soldering iron to swap them out (or change them back).

You're welcome too, Christopher. Now I'll just sit back, kick my feet up on the desk, and watch the fireworks as you and Brian duke it out.

Actually...my money is on Brian. No offense Christopher, but I've seen the results of his rage. He seems to have a high tolerance for pain!

that's a learned behaviour. Comes from police academy...

Actually.....I have my max set and am not going to get too crazy. I kind of like the idea of painting my TRC and using silver leaf on the logo.
As far as tolerance for pain......I was crying like a 4 year old girl on the inside
