Picked up this 1973 H-II-BN last fall for a reasonable price. One of its previous owners had removed the high gloss poly finish from the neck and headstock which destroyed the headstock logo and the coat of arms decals. The body of the bass and the hardware were in excellent condition, so other...

One of my basses had suffered a headstock break many years ago which was repaired. Unfortunately the repair was only structural and not visual so I decided if this particular bass is going to remain in my collection that the headstock needed to be repaired visually. For any Torontian's looking...

Back in the late 60's after Kawai bought Teisco the results of their second generation instruments saw some very creative looking instruments especially within the Kent 700 & 800 Series guitars and basses. I've been on the hunt for one of these for quite sometime because they sound incredible...

This is the original bridge pickup from my 1973 Rickenbacker 4001. As you can see from the photos it's in good condition however I think that it needs to be rewound because when taking a reading from it there was no consistency and it's thin sounding which leads me to believe that there's...

So I notice that a lot of Ric owners choose to keep the Proudly Made In The USA sticker and the Push/Pull for Vintage Tone sticker on their new basses. I don't notice any RIC guitar players doing this. So I'm wondering why anyone would want to keep a sticker on their instrument rather than...

This is a little thing but one that I'd like to bring to Paul's attention. The previous version of TB allowed the user to move or hop from one forum to another via a pull down menu that was at the bottom of each page. This new version doesn't have this ability. In order to change (or hop) to...
