Allparts Rickenbacker Bridge/Tailpiece Help

[Gin]

Hey guys was wondering if any of you Ric owners had any experience with this? How do they hold up compared to the actual Rickenbacker Bridges/tailpieces? Tail Lift if at all any?

Official Rickenbacker pieces are currently out of stock and I really can't wait around any longer.

Thanks!

The allparts and the real Ric part can both be made to NEVER pull up by adding 2 additional screws.

Or you can also get the Hipshot Ric replacement bridge.

I currently have a badassII on my ric and I believe its the source of my neck problems.

I don't think a bridge can cause neck problems.

If the new bridge/tailpiece I bought from Ric 2 years ago lifts off again, I'll be getting one of those older "Lawsuit" Hipshots.

I don't think a bridge can cause neck problems.

Perhaps the excess mojo present in the BAII caused the neck to try to "look down" at the bridge?

Nope.

Nope.

Hmmm, I guess Im wrong then, but I was told by other users awhile ago that a badass II bridge could be part of my Ric neck problems. I forgot to mention it also gives me a low output E as well(crappy bridge saddle??). I might as well just try to replace it with the original bridge anyways.

If you do, use low tension strings. I'm a Ric guy, but the bridge/tailpiece is inferior IMO.

Thats the problem though, i dont really wanna use low tension. Im currently using 105-45, I also detune at times to D even C. It might just be a personal preference, but I really like my 4001 to look "stock".
