Hi my name is Kurt and i love Rickenbacker basses. Bought my first in 1969 for $650.00 then sold (silly me) in 1971 for $250.00. Now i want back in but find they are too dear and no dealer in Australia either so am making my own. Just need to know what the neck angle of a 4000 is if some one knows nearly ready to glue neck in place. I realise John Hall frowns on this but what can i say????
