  2. Some of the folks on this thread are members... ...incidentally, there's also a nascent "Rickenhackers" group, which is a safe haven for folks who mod their Rics and don't want to incur the wrath of the "thou shalt not mod your Ric" evangelists.
  3. It's a bit like someone only saw half of this...
  4. Hmmm - that was a nice bass, but the chances of finding a replacement neck might be slim.
  5. What's that shonky old brass one with a chunk out of it?
  6. I'm pretty convinced it isn't!
  7. Has it been converted to a 24-fret short scale?
  8. I have to say I've never managed to quite latch on to Ibanez instruments. (Apart from possibly a vintage Ric copy.)
  9. FYI, there’s no “w” in Fireglo.
  10. They've got an AliExpress 8-string for £799.99; I think it featured here a couple of weeks ago.
  11. Chickenbacker from the seller in Paignton again - buy cheap from AliExpress, add a gushing sales pitch, and double the price.
  12. Sub-Mission?
  13. Really - the seller took it to Cash Converters!?!! I have looked at it in various for-sale pages over the years, but it's simply too much money for it. I think there were two of them made; slightly different.
  14. A nice old Washburn. Sincerely hope post-stroke life works out for you.
  15. I'm wondering if these are genuine... https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005003312170216.html
  16. I can report the Hakko is working - I just used it to create a "Hack-O-Sound" (name coincidence is coincidental!) stereo splitter box for use with Rickenbackers. https://www.facebook.com/groups/680612456952121/posts/688267056186661
  17. It sort of puts my aluminium Tele into perspective.
  18. Nice wood, sir!
  19. "The Cactus In The Window" - sounds like the title of a whodunnit...
  20. The pics with with my iPhone and were within minutes of each other, but the auto settings do seem to have a slightly darker setting for the pearl one popping out a bit more.
  21. FYI the Hakko arrived today and it looks good (I've not opened it to check the daughterboard). The ebay seller is rossharmon08 (Grosvenor Associates), which is who one of the online "how to spot a fake" videos mentioned and confirmed OK.
  22. Cheers! It's taking shape; not sure if black or pearl looks best?
