Having owned 3 rick basses including my new one, I was wondering if any part of it was made anywhere else? is all of it made in the USA or are things like the knobs made elsewhere, like Fender and Gibson do, not that it matters but no one else has asked this!

I believe the tuners are Schaller, made in Germany to RIC specs. Possibly some of the electronic bits on the control panel are "foreign" made, but for the most part, Ricks are "made" in the USA.

On some of the vintage models, the Kluson-looking tuners are the Gotoh repros.
