Hi Kyle,

One of the things people on here are most keen on is jumping (literally) on instruments
that infringe Ric's copyright, on their behalf.

As an owner of 3 Ric 4003's, I hate seeing Rockinbetters at half the price and half of the
sound. I have paid for an original and ****** copies wind me up.

Ric have - uniquely - taken the step of trademarking and copyrighting their designs. That
stops us endlessly tripping over US / UK made replicas that are nowhere near as good,

I hope your replica is a good one and that you feel that your guitar is value for money.

Console yourself if it's an good guitar, even if it's not an actual Ric.

Yipes! Sorry to hear about the fire, Kyle... The most important thing is that you're alright... Guitars can be replaced.

Isn't it a little ironic that your Rickenfaker got referred to as "firewood", yet it survived the housefire?
