    What's wrong with the Rickenbacker 4003?

    Sorry about the typo guys! When I was trying to say, is that with my bass was delivered, all is well, but the trouble bridge pick up is slanted to a degree that a dramatically makes the E string louder and distort. I've downloaded the trouble pick up schematic, and I am going to have a go at...

    What's wrong with the Rickenbacker 4003?

    No skunk stripe on this guy. I'm digging it, but I'm disappointed that the bridge pickup is not level at all and th E string books and distorts. Going to do some surgery this weekend to correct it.

    What's wrong with the Rickenbacker 4003?

    Ive got a 2023, 4003 coming in the mail today. Can anybody tell me if it's a single or dual truss rod?

    What's wrong with the Rickenbacker 4003?

    Has anyone compared the new single truss rod neck compared to the old duel truss rod neck in the 4003s? Is there a diameter difference?

    What's wrong with the Rickenbacker 4003?

    I have been seriously considering getting a 4003, and I am debating between the maple glow and the black. Does anybody have any input between these? For example, does the black scratch easy? Does the mapleglo have an epoxy on it or is it just the raw wood? Unfortunately, there are none in my...

    Phil Jones - CAB-47 vs. C4 => what’s the difference?

    I wound up going with the cab 47. I am a huge fan of the 5 inch speakers and I think they definitely have their place, but as far as a wider spectrum with more lows and highs, the 7 inch speakers just simply do a better job. Of course, these cabinets also have the subs and the tweeters. I wish...

    I did pull the trigger on the EQ tube, and it is very impressive. I have primarily use it in recording situations thus far, and have gotten lots of compliments on the improvement of my upright tone. Are use it with my iPhone, and the interface is fantastic. I can’t recommend this pedal enough.

    I did wind up picking up an EQ2 and it is very impressive. I am still playing around with it, but the options are amazing. The iPhone interface is great. I had wondered this: in a live situation, how easy is it to adjust freq, q, HPF without a phone or laptop. Answer? Very easy. I haven’t had a...

    Understood. I get around town quite a bit and I am almost always able to pull that kind of fender sound out of a given house rig, but I just can’t seem to do it with this Phil Jones rig! I can get a solid warm and fuzzy Duck Dunn tone no problem. It’s the more abrasive Jaco type sound I can’t...
