Excellent. I'd like to get a nice ric copy like yours one day. Can't afford the real deal and I'd be too afraid to gig it if I could. Very nice score.

Thanks man! A very kind fellow forum member gave me the new TRC. Not real but "close enough for rock and roll".

Rickenbacker sell them directly, though knowing them you probably have to trade in your old smahsed one

Yeah this is the truth. Takes a good while to get a replacement too.BobArsecake wrote:Rickenbacker sell them directly, though knowing them you probably have to trade in your old smahsed one
The good Ric copies were made by Tokai. I hear the earlier ones are better than the newer ones and they ain't exact copies, just look really similar. The one I tried was a later Korea model and the it certainly wasn't an exact copy in shape. It didn't quite resonate that much either.
