Rickresource Rickenbacker Forum

Hi all,
First post here (...and I need something to post about to get my post count up). I have some dead Hi-gains from my 1976 4001. They haven't worked for almost 20 years, and haven't been in a bass for almost 10. It sounds to me like Sergio is the master when it comes to pickup rewinds...so I have been PMing with him.

However, I have never shipped anything internationally before. Does anyone have any recommendations on how to pack and ship the pickups from the US to Portugal?

Sergio seems like a nice enough guy (Hi Sergio)....I am just uneasy about the process of sending pickups overseas because I am a total novice.

If anyone has any tips, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks,
jc

I've shipped twice to Sergio. I stuck the PU in a small box and sent it via USPS. Probably cost only a couple of bucks for postage. I didn't use any custom forms etc. He gets them no problem.

Hey Jeremy! Thank you kindly. Well, what Chris said...

Yeah, what Chris said.

Because this is his forum. There are others who do this kind of work. http://classicamplification.net/Pickups/Rick_pickup.htm
