Just wondering where I can order the foam padding that sits under the pickup, for adjusting. Am worried they will lose their elasticity over time. Thanks.

Mike Parks can get it for you Mr. Gravy. Just in passing, I removed the foam padding from under high gains in my 350 after about a decade and it was still in excellent shape.

That's good to know it's held up. I just picked up a '92 Mapleglo 330 with black hardware and the padding seemed to be in good condition. Although I'd feel a bit more secure if I knew there was a viable source for them out there. Is Mike Parks affiliated with Rickenbacker?

Mike Parks at the Rickenbacker Page. He's a RIC dealer. I just ordered a pair of those foam pickup pads this moring as a matter a fact. $3.00 each.

Any RIC dealer can get these. Part # 03802, $3.
Funny how RIC sells these things, when they last forever, but they don't sell stuff like vibrato arms and hardware - which disappear all the time.
