4080 Wiring

This 4080 had been subjected to really poor wiring modifications as you will see. Naturally the guitar was unreliable, losing sound, with expected crackles buzzes and hums. Click on the picture to see how this beautiful instruments wiring had been butchered.

4001v63

Year: 1994

Finish: Fireglo

Apparently the poor guy's wife launched this out of a second floor window , and he took it to his local music shop in the USA to see what they could do . They put it on ebay for spares, and we bought it .

This was back in 2004. When it arrived, although the body and neck was in three pieces, it looked too good to break so we breathed new life into her over the next few years, and now she is a real beauty, fully restored fully functional and she sounds great.

4001

Year: 1974

Finish: Black

Bought years ago as a Mapleglo..which actually turned out to be 'Grey Primer Glo". Good news was that all the important stuff was OK so we decided to give this the 'best of everything from over the years' treatment

Starting with great resonant maple body and neck, the neck and body binding were removed and the body reshaped to the 4001S profile. The neck was reshaped,and the fretboard painted black to match the rest of the guitar.

New Zealand Mother Of Pearl Dot markers replaced the triangle inlays . The neck pickup was replaced with a 7.4K reissue scatterwound toaster, the bridge pickup is a Hybrid reissue Horseshoe, using all the Horseshoe components except for the bobbin. A standard 4003 high gain coil assembly is used but with the flat magnet and the pole pieces removed and rare earth neodym magnets used as new pole pieces

A Black RickysSounds replacement pickguard and Genuine Rickenbacker TRC complete the look . All other hardware is original 1974.
