It's happened to me once or twice, but I fill, rebind, redrill, touch up.
Wow, that's what I thought (original), I'm surprised they left the mistake there, but I think it's cool. Adds character I suppose...

I wouldn't touch it at all either. Great guitar you've snagged, Collin. There's nothing quite like a nice vintage Rickenbacker to play on! Congratulations. :mrgreen:

Whoa, Collin. Props to you on your new score! Now, there's a reason to bring back the 60's. Anytime I'm near the junction of the 405 and 605, I'll know where you live. That glow is ridiculous. Thank gawd I was wearing these.......my 60's shades.

Peace, out!

Play on, pick often, jam with any Rickenbacker, and prosper.
