Rickenbacker repairers in Australia?

[Hot Stove]

Hi

I was wondering if anyone on the list knows of repairers in Australia (preferably Sydney) who can repair a Rickenbacker 4003?

The bridge pickup is barely audible from the standard jack output but sounds fine coming from the ric-o-sound.

cheers

I just put my rickenbacker to turrumurra music for a pickup wiring repair.

I havent picked it up yet so im not sure how it went. But Dave there is great. Ask to speak to him and he will talk you through possibilities and how to approach things.

Cheers

You can probably repair this yourself. Pull the jack plate, there's a pressure switch on the non-rick-o-sound jack that probably has a little corrosion or debris in the contacts. Just run a piece of very fine sandpaper between the contacts. Also clean the other contacts in the jack.

My Ricks always had this problem to some degree and were easily fixed by just cleaning the jacks....

The guys at Turramurra are great CS wise, and know what they're doing.

Google "site:OzBassForum.com repairs Sydney" if DIY doesn't fix it.

Hi Guys

A guy called Alan Rigg fixed my rick. You can find him at http://www.alanrigg.com.au/. So he is a guy you can consider if your Rick plays up.
