The stock model is on the right.
Van Campen Modified Rickenbacker Guitar
This Rickenbacker model is unlike any of the other 60's
Beatlesque Jangly sounding Rickenbacker's !!!
In fact it sounds and plays great right off the shelf.
This guitar is the only guitar under $1,000.00 I know of made from solid
Walnut with a 24 fret double octave neck.
It also has a neck through body design. It is available in chrome or gold hardware versions.
This guitar gets my vote as one of the best guitars on the
market for the price. It has all the right components. The price is extremely
low. No other low cost American made guitar has a neck through body with 24
frets and a solid Walnut body. The stock pickups are great. The "Black
Backs" TM in the customized version are a little better but the stock pickups
are better than most other stock pickups that come installed in Gibsons, Fenders
& Ibanez guitars.
The modifications on the guitar as performed above by Guitar
Tech Jim Van Campen are all excellent improvements. In my opinion the only one
that is absolutely necessary is the slimming of the neck. The only real fault
that the guitar has is the neck is too big. As long as you need to slim the
neck you might as well remove the stupid looking heel from hell, It protrudes
way too far from the body.
The Basic VC Mod Includes,
Heel totally removed, Neck shaved thin, 1500 G neck modification
