Is a factory visit out of the question?

Post by petersland »

I'm traveling to USA from Australia for the first time next year.
It's a work trip to San Marcos CA.
Owning a few 4003's, i'd really love to visit Ric headquarters.
Am I dreaming?
Cheers Pete

I'd say some people have succeeded, many others have not :-)

While it's not completely impossible, I'd say don't get your hopes up. They're a very small private operation and prefer to focus on making instruments.

If you're not in the "click" or famous, then I doubt you'll get in.
