I've seen all those I came real close to breaking my no figure rule over a Ric-o-sound one last week be I over came... I do want to get my hands on the art book though

yeah. i've only watched an episode or two of K-on. i'm a git. i'm watching the High School Of The Dead 'un right now. good stuff. i just rarely watch movies/dl's/shows outside of work and i just have a dvd player there. should take over a hard drive to tv interface box.

It's a real 1977 burgundy Rickenbacker 4001 body/neck with new... everything.

Oh...well then.

Something about it just doesn't look right, tho...aside from the blank truss-rod cover.

To get a new truss rod cover you need to have one [and $50] to sent to RIC or pay $175-200 on ebay for used one... I'm going to write fuck off in Japanese on it.

Raelly? I don't see it, looks bang on to me

Well I did have a 60's style long pickguard made for it

vs the "modern" shorter pickguard...

I don't like the gap.. actually I would have done that even if I had bought a brand new 4003...

On further review, and after seeing the two above...I think it's the solid color headstock, rather than the 2 color fade, that made me think it's a clone.

Either way, I'd love to have it! A Ric is one of my dream basses.

I think you are getting a bit of a camera,....optical illusion causing the headstock to be a little darker and smaller then normal.

Nice pick up there Mudder,....I'd be happy with a Jap Knock off of one of those.

RIC-O-SOUND!

Phase 1 of Operation Hondo Rides Again is complete!
Swapped the tuners out of the old neck and into the new, widened the neck pocket, drilled, fucked up, filled and re-drilled the holes so it fits (almost) perfectly.
A nut will be shipped out tomorrow

as a side note, Gorilla Glue when sanded smells like when you use a heat gun to strip polyurethane finishes away...
It smells delicious...strangely sweet brain damage, I'm sure.
