Re: Paul Weller
Difficult to imagine a better advert for Rickenbacker than this..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=endscreen&NR=1&v=5xrRkLlol9Q Well, that's interesting-I was 17 in 1979 so those people would be my age. Except those people have aged now and I haven't changed at all. Nope...Dorian Gre...

Re: Boost pedal for solos
I think Morgan is looking for a clean boost, Jake. I'm not sure, is a clean boost for the clean channel only? I need something that will cut through the band when I'm taking a solo using the distortion channel in addition to the clean channel, and that won't change the sound of the amp. Maybe the M...

Re: Rickenbacker and Amps
I haven't tried the 59 Bassman reissue, but I know from experience that more speakers (such as 4x10s) are better sounding to my ears, and I thought those were well-respected. I play a Mesa Rocket 44 1x12 and a Mesa Rectoverb, and those sound good with Rickenbackers, but if I were starting over ampwi...

Boost pedal for solos
I wondered what kind of boost pedal people use for solos? I haven't found anything that cuts through the rest of the band without drastically altering the sound of the guitar. The Contour channel on the Mesa is good except I use that channel most of the time for regular playing; so it is set at that...

I could see Phil Campbell playing this. Matching Rics a la The Jam, Romantics, etc.

Jetglo 330
Just bought a new Jetglo 330; looking forward to playing it at a charity event in June. Ric 330+Mesa Rectoverb=a happy grin.
Proud to buy American.

Re: When did McCartney sand off the points on the "horns?"
Aren't they called 'cutaways', not 'horns'?
Horns are what you get when you mess with the bull.
The bass looked best in Fireglo, for sure.
Jimmy McCulloch=best guitarist he ever had.

Re: Rickenbacker Exports
What a great video; thanks for posting it. What a pleasure to see a high-quality product made in USA with such care and precision. I like the farm-grown maple aspect as well.
