So this arrived this last week. Still not sure what I think. I can definitely say it's much nicer than what was rolling off the line 10 years ago. Very nice finish job. Neck is on the chunky side for my taste, but the improved string spacing seems to compensate for that. My only real complaint is that the truss rod nuts are too close to the headstock to get the RIC adjusting tool in there. Suggestions?

PS big thanks to JK for the hookup on this!

Have you tried grinding the tool down Jason?

supposedly a Taylor truss rod tool will work great on Ricks. I ordered a couple, but can't for the life of me remember where I put them-DUH :roll:

Update - since the weather changed it's nice and straight, I didn't have to do anything! (For sale by the way)
