Rickresource Rickenbacker Forum

Wow!!! That's a very unusual Ric, and I love the look of it with the tortoiseshell: pure eye candy! Very cool.

Very nice Paul, and thumbs up on the tort, which I almost always do not like. That TRC against the headstock looks stunning. The guard against the body just fits.

As always, a fantastic job, Paul. My JG 430 is jealous.

A parts question: what kind of roller bridge is that? I'm toying with the idea of putting a Bigsby on my own 430, and the only Rickenbacker-style roller bridges I've seen on line are the one sold by Winfield. Are there any others available out there?

That bridge came from my parts cabinet and is from a C58.

Paul, that is stunning. Being a bass player 6 strings just don't catch my eye unless they look exceptional and this one surely is. If you'd gone for the white, it would have fallen into the lovely but same old category. The way it is, it's just beautiful right up to and including the bridge hardware.
