good members of rrf ! has anybody idea what part number on ric boutique website is the bolt for vibrato arm? or where else i can get one? i tried ric customer service email - and got no reply. i was under the impression that they would send silly screw with replacement arm i ordered but unfortunately NO - that would be too logical since of course when you loose the tremolo arm ... retaining screw will stay there. :roll: just like jesus is going to appear on my sons's personal pizzas.

Dusan, if you're talking about the screw to the arm the part number is 01146, if I read you correctly.

Try contacting Pick Of The Ricks to see if they've got one.

Funny enough- I have two vintage Rics- a 365OS and Rose Morris 1998, and BOTH of them came to me minus the Ac'cent arm but with the bolts in place!

Is this for your new RM RI?
