Please PM, thanks! hieronymous Senior Member Username: hieronymous Post Number: 1371 Registered: 1-2005 Posted on Sunday, June 08, 2014 - 4:10 pm:    Several years ago this would have been me too - I missed out on a beautiful 4003 with Activators. Best of luck and if you do get some please post some soundclips! moonliner Advanced Member Username: moonliner Post Number: 239 Registered: 12-2004 Posted on Sunday, June 08, 2014 - 9:55 pm:    I tried sending a PM but it came back as an error. I recently bought a Ric with Alembic pickups and electronics. I took them out and put in original stuff, so this stuff could be up for sale. 0vid Intermediate Member Username: 0vid Post Number: 165 Registered: 4-2003 Posted on Saturday, June 28, 2014 - 10:45 am:    PM'd you Moonliner.... 0vid Intermediate Member Username: 0vid Post Number: 166 Registered: 4-2003 Posted on Sunday, July 06, 2014 - 2:19 pm:    Still looking, have updated my email in my profile, able to receive PMs properly now! 0vid Intermediate Member Username: 0vid Post Number: 167 Registered: 4-2003 Posted on Tuesday, August 26, 2014 - 3:27 am:    Sorted, thanks Moonliner! My 4003 sounds MUCH cleaner, it has a full spectrum, not as much grunge but still has some recognisable Rick tonality due the physical placement and the structure of the bass. It is like you can tell its a Rick on AM radio and FM radio and the latter was what I wanted. 72rick Member Username: 72rick Post Number: 51 Registered: 12-2006 Posted on Wednesday, October 01, 2014 - 10:18 am:    Hey Keith (moonliner), It's Garret! Hope all is Heaven with your '72 Rick 4001. Glad to know you've got her situated the way you wanted! And nicely placed the Alembic Rick Activator System! Congratulations Ovid! Killer Alembic Tone Control in a Rick! Excellent COmbination! 72rick Member Username: 72rick Post Number: 52 Registered: 12-2006 Posted on Wednesday, October 01, 2014 - 10:19 am:    (Message edited by 72rick on October 01, 2014) moonliner Advanced Member Username: moonliner Post Number: 274 Registered: 12-2004 Posted on Saturday, October 04, 2014 - 6:24 pm:    I'm glad it all worked out for everyone! Selling those pickups will help fund my current build, and I'm glad they went to a good home! Garrett, I' LOVING the 72 Rickenbacker! It's a jewel in my collection and it gets lots of use.
