Have a look at Suzi Arden playing the first Rickenbacker 12 string, a Fireglo 360/12OS.

Is this the same Suzi Arden (and band) that graced the back of the Dead Kennedys album "Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables"? They look remarkably similar...

I would really like to know who the other guitarists are who are playing the 4001 and the 360 on stage with Suzi.

It is not the same Suzi Arden on the back of the Dead Kennedys album.

Were they a punk band?

The Suzi Arden Show picture was taken in Ely, Nevada, in 1965 when they took a day off from their Mint Hotel (Las Vegas, NV) show to do a dance and show for the Kennycot Union get-together. Looking at the picture far left is the hand and tambourine of Suzi's nephew (now deceased), Buddy Darden. Gene Breeden is next to Suzi and the piano man was Geno Landhome. Can't remember the names of the drummer and bass man.

Bob, I'm new here. If you are talking about The Suzi Arden Show being a punk band, no. Suzi had the longest running show in Las Vegas. It was country and western.

Welcome aboard. Carole.
Do you play guitar or bass?
Or both?

Carole,
My "main instruments" are the SSL 9064J and 4064G+ 64-channel mixing consoles, and various signal processors in the studio since my job is recording engineer/producer. So you can call me a music maker instead of a musician.

My basses are my "girlfriends" and "playmates" when recording or songwriting.

Here's the SSL 9064J console and Annie, girlfriend #1.

By the way, mind if I ask how you found this site since you were not a musician?
