1970 Posted March 16, 2012 Author Share Posted March 16, 2012 you're totally right - i should just take it to a tech when i get paid next... just annoying when you shell out a shittonne of money for something nice, then you just keep shelling out cash on it to get sounding/playing the way you want, just never ends this curse.

[/quote] Good call. The great thing with Rics though is that once setup correctly they tend to stay that way for years and you won't be shelling out again for a long while.

1970 Posted April 19, 2012 Author Share Posted April 19, 2012 4003 is back from setup today - had a quick play in the workshop. I figured the bloke was going to straighten the neck a bit and adjust the bridge, but holy moly, he's also filed down the nut, taken the laquer coating off the frets, flattened them all out and given them a nice polish as well! Very impressed! I had a quick play and it's feeling/sounding very nice indeed. Will give it a solid run at practise tonight and then on tour for a week. chuffed! f*ck all the ric hate, i love my 4003. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
