Simon C Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 15 hours ago, AMV001 said: Going back to the comments earlier about the new bridge position. Regardless of whether you like the colour of this instrument or not (that's another discussion) here's a good example of how it spoils the look. That gap in the binding is usually hidden by the tailpiece but with the whole assembly moved forward it just makes the guitar look unfinished IMHO. It looks pretty good on the Walnut I think. The neck being in natural draws the attention away from the lack of binding imo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that belongs on the "Rickenbacker horror show" thread, rather on this Rickenbacker Porn thread. Or maybe we need Rickenbacker Porn Star names. As I recall the formula is: the colour of your first Ric and the hair style you were rocking on your 21st birthday. So mine is "Walnut Bouffant". 😁 Edited March 4 by Simon C Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great upgrade while maintaining the overall vintage Ric vibe. 🙂 I just fancied trying one out. If I like it, the mapleglo might get one too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My name is actually Vin Orange and when I was younger I was slightly shy and some cads decided my nickname should be Vin Rouge. Hilarious.... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
