    Agree. Plain white would be perfect for this one.

    1979 Rickenbacker 4001 - Think I Bought a Refin

    Thanks for that explanation. Good news is that this 4001 looks like it has been around the block a few times, so not a case queen. But yeah, I’m not going to carve into it any further. Appreciate your insight🤙

    1979 Rickenbacker 4001 - Think I Bought a Refin

    Those are sick! Congrats on those. I haven’t seen any jetglo 4001s with black binding, with the exception of that random link to a rare BT (black trim) model that came out in the late 70s. What year is yours? Any other details you can share?

    1979 Rickenbacker 4001 - Think I Bought a Refin

    Yeah, they’ve had plenty of vintage stuff there over the years. I went from rounds to flats and it started buzzing, and I know I wasn’t going to be the one to mess with the truss rods. It plays great now. Hoping someone will play it more than I do and will be listing soon.

    The Rickenbacker Club Part Twelve

    Hey Ric Club! I posted this in another forum and not sure about the etiquette required to post a link in a different thread, so accept my apologies in advance… Just wondering about this 1979 4001 I picked up last year. Any help is appreciated...

    1979 Rickenbacker 4001 - Think I Bought a Refin

    Ok, so I took this in to my local shop for a set up and they said they had to scrape away some of the wood by the truss rods. I removed it today to take pics (going to list for sale) and this is what I found. This has to be a refin of a mapleglo, right? Also took an exact and scraped off a...
