This may work and I don't think it is a bridge too far.

Life, as with music, often requires one to let go of the melody and listen to the rhythm

Re: Rickenbacker 4001/3 bridge unit (not tailpiece) wanted
Hi, yes, I’m aware of the Babicz, but I have several issues with it, not the least that I use super low action, and given that on earlier basses the fingerboard already sits lower than on later ones, and I’ve already heard about problems getting the action low enough even on later basses, I don’t think it’s for me. But thanks anyway!maxwell wrote: Tue Jun 09, 2026 11:54 am I do not have a Ric bass, nor do I know anything about them. But when this thread first appeared I did a simple search and this was on top of the search results:

I mean, if a Genuine RIC bridge is unavailable and if the alternative is a copy of some sort, then maybe this could be considered. If it is totally inappropriate, re-read my opening statement.![]()

Good find, Orville.
