A cool take on Starship Trooper with Rich and Don playing spacey phased guitar, Peter doing his sparse Brubek, and Harry on Gareth's Chris Squire signature model. Cool stuff, guys! http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a173/AnalogPackrat/2015%20BARC/vlcsnap-2015-08-01-19h26m28s74.jpg Harry takes on his ...

In addition to the three tulip guitars we had two 8-string basses! http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a173/AnalogPackrat/2015%20BARC/IMAG3808r.jpg Harry joins the jam http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a173/AnalogPackrat/2015%20BARC/IMAG3810r.jpg Gareth demonstrates the versatility of the Lemmy Signat...

More jamming... http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a173/AnalogPackrat/2015%20BARC/IMAG3801r.jpg One of the older Beatles tunes that Don lead (I want to hold you hand?) http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a173/AnalogPackrat/2015%20BARC/IMAG3802r.jpg Kira's little 12 sounded great through the AC30 http:/...

Two of my friends and their first BARC. Peter (L) did a great job drumming for us and Don (yes he owns a Rick--a nice 67 360-12) who is a hardcore Beatles historian and a great player (check out the T-shirt). http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a173/AnalogPackrat/2015%20BARC/IMAG3791r.jpg Don has some...

And what can you say about this? Hand-done German carve front and back Jazzbo. http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a173/AnalogPackrat/2015%20BARC/IMAG3786r.jpg I think even Woody wanted to take one home... http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a173/AnalogPackrat/2015%20BARC/IMAG3787r.jpg 12-string acousti...

Kira's cool short scales. Some rare birds here. http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a173/AnalogPackrat/2015%20BARC/IMAG3774r.jpg This is not something you see very often http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a173/AnalogPackrat/2015%20BARC/IMAG3775r.jpg Nor is this 50's Model 1000 tulip http://i11.photobuc...

Sorry it took me so long to get these together. My Jetglo guitar collection, amp, and revamped pedal board. http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a173/AnalogPackrat/2015%20BARC/IMAG3761r.jpg Gareth's massive carload of goodness http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a173/AnalogPackrat/2015%20BARC/IMAG3762r.j...

Well, in my possibly biased opinion I think it was a good time. I have never seen so much Rickenbacker candy in one room. Gareth brought 9 basses and 3 guitars including some really awesome pieces and some work by Paul W. Paul brought 8 guitars including several absolute stunners. Kira brought her c...

Yes, mine is a 2000 model and always sounded dull. Turns out the nominal 250k posts (already a bit of a marginal value for humbuckers) were well below even that. Now have 500k volume pots and it sounds much better. I wonder if your earlier make has the same issue or not? I thought someone (Dane?) ha...

Glad you made it up with no trouble. I spent a few hours this afternoon putting together some song sheets. I hope it gets us through. I'll be bringing: Deluxe Reverb Pedal board Extension cord Power strip Acme Low B cab and speaker cable (speakon on both ends) 375 360WB-12 650C maybe a 320 if it fit...

We're in the home stretch now... I'll be bringing a case of bottled water. If anyone could bring a few sodas and/or chips/pretzels/etc. that would be great. I also remembered that an old friend of mine, Don, who is a great player used to have a 360CW-12. I emailed him and he plans to drop by for a w...

Forecast is for ~85F on Sunday. I'm pretty sure the place is air conditioned, but it might get warm with all of us and our amps...

Good times! Only a week til BARC 2015...

No problem. Glad to do it, Rich. Looking forward to the big day!

620 heavy...more proof of other than jangle on tap. These ladies ROCK.
