The pick up selector doesnt work, and when I had someone look at it, he couldnt solve the problem for some reason. I only use the bridge pick up, so have never bothered to get it sorted.
I am thinking of buying a 330 with toasters, with the possibility (maybe) of swopping these high gains and the toasters around.
Someone had recommend the guy in the link below, and forgive me as Id never thought of using your services !

It's probably the switch in the Mono jack - if it isn't making a good contact, you get no neck pickup through that jack.
They shouldn't be any worse than anyone else's - they're standard Switchcraft right-angle ones.

the last problem one kept popping back to the middle position

The strings pass through the back of the original tailpiece, then through the holes in this one, then over the bridge saddles so the upward pull is taken by this bracket.

My no.1 guitar is a Ric 330 and has been since 2008 -again no issues.
I dont know know what this exploding phenomenon you speak of is
RIC are not frightened of changing anything, they know they can sell all the instruments they make at more or less whatever price they want, regardless of what they do.

Not one that looks the same - they’ve trademarked the design. The Hipshot one looks so different they can’t stop it - it does work well, but it’s ugly.
Ironically I was working on a 70s Matsumoku fake 4001 last week - no tail lift, after at least 40 years. That ‘cheap’ Japanese part must be made from better metal...
