Incomplete recognition: Although a People category was created when we connected an iPhone through the app, no Contacts were imported. Music was also not present at all the first time the device was connected, and we had to disconnect and reconnect before it showed up. There is no way to refresh a connection while a device remains plugged in. Inadequate Help: The Help link only takes you to a FAQs page with about nine general entries. If you're looking for something along the lines of a Quick Start Guide, or if the problem you're having doesn't fit into one of the included categories, you're out of luck. IRip is a handy little program for managing the transfer of media between your computer and your iOS devices. It's not the most efficient at reading all of the data on your device, but what it does display is well organized.Įditors' note: This is a review of the trial version of iRip for Mac 2.1.7.I have something that is near identical, but rather than XRB it has (had.) SLB2A Electronics (how and why can I still remember that?!) - switchgear is the same as yours. I don't have definitive information that production continued in Japan before '88, but it seems a fair assumption to make in the circumstances. The information I've always had was that Aria didn't start production in Korea until '88. Well its certainly lacking the 'made in japan' stamp on the scratchplate,no string trees, the neck does slant back, and the neck is painted in the same finish as the the sounds of it Kim Jong-il may have played a part in its construction My money's on yours being a 1987 Korean-built example. The nearest thing to the XRB in the 1986 Catalogue are the RSB/Straycat models which have a very different flavour - pointy horns, soapbar pickups, die cast bridges, larger dot markers etc. I don't see any string trees, does your headstock have a backwards slant as well? Also, is the neck painted or clear coated? I used to own a Korean-built Magna Series 5 string & it shared several design features with your XRB - notably the 'conventional' pickups, 'bent tin' bridge & the small dot markers. There's also a poor quality 1987 Catalogue Scan here.Īs Jon rightly states, 1987 marks the end of the Matsumoku plant - although precisely when it actually closed seems to be rather elusive (it was ownedby Singer & they were having financial difficulties.) Exactly what got made where in this transitional year is open to debate.
