Bob I know, My BBR has the VTC/pull pot, but no sticker. Is the sticker an afterthought, after the VTC went out for a while, was my question.
What does "cut the pull pot" mean?

Cut into production - as for the sticker - I wish they wouldn't put them on !!

Mine is coming off, the pictures I took were seconds after opening the case.

Here's another pic I took recently to show that it fits in an Epiphone bass case that I currently have on Ebay.

Steve - place the sticker at the bottom of the neck where it meets the body of the bass. that's where I put all of mine. No one can see it and it stays with the bass

Good idea, Andy! Can I get it off of the pickguard without leaving a lot of sticky residue in that spot?

Steve ... if you can you are a better man than me ! Took the Made in America sticker off my new
Blue Boy this afternoon - took an AGE to get the pickguard clear of the gunge !!

I stick the "Made in America" sticker to the back of the TRC cover.
That keeps it on the bass, but completely protected.

The residual adhesive comes off easily with a small amount of WD-40 or a little olive oil.

Cheers Joey - I wish I'd asked earlier !! WD-40 can was inches away & I chose to ignore it

Well, it made it's first stage appearance this weekend, and definitely a joy to play! I'm gonna see if I can get Jeff Rath to put his special "tune" on it though, he knows how I like them set up! Got to get the pickups a little closer to the strings...you know, that kind of stuff.
But....it's a killer

Steve ... I love to set up Ric basses ... so come by my humble workshop ... you can play the new 5 string fenderbird as well ... and that is the best looking Ric you have ever owned ...

Cool Pics Steve. Good to see you rockin' out on a Rick. That bass is beautiful.
Bob, now you know about WD-40 for next time.

I like how you guys keep the "Made in America" sticker on the pickguard.
