'R' tailpiece bracket - impossible to find?
Posted: Fri May 22, 2015 5:25 pm
Hi all,
The mounting bracket (Rick catalogue no. 01112) to my 370/12 'R' tailpiece just snapped the other day. I had a seen a tiny crack but thought it was stable.
Seems impossible to get hold of one, at least for me in Europe. All EU dealers list the piece as out of stock, and Rickenbacker themselves refuse to ship to non-US addresses (and even to US addresses when using a non-US paypal account).
So, any ideas on how I could solve this? Any US firm you know of that ship to Sweden? Or maybe someone would be so kind to order one for me and simply send it across the pond to me? It's this part: http://boutique.rickenbacker.com/BRACKE ... p_548.html
Happy to pay all expenses and a little extra.
Any help appreciated....
