Nice to see such a thorough write up from so far away, somebody clearly loves their Rics!

This, thanks to Google Translate, is my new favourite description of the string mute from the article - "have the leading edge of the bridge can be Rubber stuffy string means elevating" :lol:

Four photos that I took, used without permission. I'm surprised there were that few. A few other photos in the article appeared in my book, but they were also posted elsewhere by the original photographers.

Not surprised by that, but at least they show photos of real Ricks and seem to (can't read it) be a serious article on the brand.

Lots of pictures from CME eBay auctions in that first article. The NAMM show picture of Grover Jackson with Ben and Ariele looks very familiar, too.
