Rickresource Rickenbacker Forum

The models are listed by most popular model (period), not most popular searched model, basically the idea is that there are more 4001 than, say - 4005, so it is logical to put the 4001 before the 4005 because it is more likely that someone will want to add it than a 4005.

I see... so, as it seems, the only way to "optimize" the non-automated search for a particular model in the menu is to remember the order of popularity?

yes,

Kidding - I can just revert it back to alphabetical order

Thanks Peter, will do.

Order has been changed to alpha-numeric.

Please note that when you change an item - it goes back to the "need approval" list so it will not be seen until Peter re-approves it.

Brian: I have amended the database accordingly. Thanks for taking the time to straighten this out.

Hello Al and welcome to the forum. If you are looking for the serial number on a 4001, it is located on the output jackplate. Look on the top and bottom of the plate for the full serial number. There should be two letters on the top and a few numbers on the bottom.

thanx very much, bro
i'm from bulgaria and here the ricks
are very rare

Great job guys, and thanks again to Peter for making it all possible!

Hmmmm.... I didn't see any of my guitars when I looked for my entries, but I bet I registered all of mine under my husband's email address, before I got my own email account.... Is there a way to fix that? It'll be nice to get caught up on my registrations, because I know I've missed quite a few of my more recent acquisitions! Right now I can't remember which ones I've already registered, but I know that a couple of them are no longer in my possession....

Peter, I have one '05 4003 registered to me that I no longer own. Can it be removed from my list? Also I have a '73 registered that I was unsure of the serial #. It automatically entered the date of manufacture as 1982-02. I finally correctly entered the serial as ML6323 but it still says 1982-02 as the manufacture date when it should be 1973-12. Thanks

Please send me the SN for these guitars, I'll fix it.

Currently the automatic mfgdate tool I wrote isn't being invoked on edits, I will change that. Basically the idea behind it was that Peter or I need to approve every change/addition before it goes public. Some serials cannot be decoded by the system at the moment (earlier than 1961) so I decided not to recalculate upon edit. As I said - i've had better decisions in my life, I will change that

As for the item that is no longer yours - just edit it putting "no longer mine" on the comments, we will do the rest.

Great job, guys.

It seems that currently I'm the only Shadow owner to register their bass...

Sheena: just click on the column headers, you can see the list ordered by date, finish, serial number, location, etc.

Yes, i know. My problem was with the sequence of numbers in models' field in the "Search" list. But now they're in numerical order, which makes it easier (and faster) to do the search — well, at least for me. (And thanks for that)

Sheena: While we don't always succeed, one of the things we try to do in this forum is listen.
