You mean the 'stereo' jack socket? Sure, I got one I can spare. You may have it for free.
A Rickenbacker bass is much like the Jaguar E car - perennially ultra-fashionable.

That is a BIG difference Alex. Ric jackplates are like gold.

How does Ric deal with those as replacement parts? It holds the serial number.
Is it a trade in thing like the TRCs or do they give it a new number?

AFAIK, they don't offer them. Which is too bad, because I could use a couple. I seem to remember that they used to sell them with XXXXX where the serial number would be (which would be fine by me; I'm after function, not deception), but according to my last call to RIC, they don't do that anymore.

Not surprising though, considering some of the other parts they don't offer (e.g. "R" tailpieces, vibrato arms and screws).
You want to put that where?
