    Who do you think makes the most of the Rickenbacker sound?

    Lemmy Just listen to "Space Ritual" & "Hall of the mountain grill" by Hawkwind...and of course,anything by the mighty Motorhead!!!

    Rickenbacker pickups, dimensions?

    My 2010 4003's pups measure; Neck-27mm X 72mm (including chrome surround) Bridge-25mm X 70mm (Just the pup itself.Not the cavity & chrome surround) I would take the above advice.Be patient & wait for your pups to arrive before going ahead with any routing.

    Rickenbacker-style bass pickups?

    I've got the Seymour Duncan SRB1 humbuckers too.Very nice sounding pickups,but don't resemble original toasters or hi-gains at all.

    Ashdown EB12-180 EVO II

    Hi all, I was just wondering if anybody has got any opinions/guidance on this combo. I've read some mixed reviews so far,but they were mainly for the EB12-180,not the EVO II version. Is this amp man enough for rehearsals & small gigs...Can this amp handle it????? Thanks!!!

    Don't Gig If You're Suffering From Diarrhoea!!

    We did a gig @ the Two Pigs in Cheltenham,UK,3 years ago...I hadn't been too well in the bowel region for a couple of days...Anyway,half way through one of our songs,i decided i needed to fart...Needless to say,it was more "Liquid" than Gas...I had to stand there,with my underwear full of liquid...
