I'm just wondering why it is co-sponsered by a EUROPEAN car brand instead of an AMERICAN family run company not outsourcing the work ! I mean, it's not only the quality of the instruments making RIC something very unique, it's as much the philosophy behind it all !
..but it's a great offer anyhow, thanks John !
It makes little difference these days.

My last two BMWs were made in.....South Carolina....assembled by....Americans. :)

GM is federally-funded and Ford is still mostly broke. Not a whole lot of cash offered up for promotional events, I'd say.

Sounds like fun though.

I would be a "maybe" but it all depends on the cost.
Put me in that column, too.

I wish I could attend but flying to the US 3 times in one year is a bit over the top, even for me :twisted:
So long and thanks for all the fish!

That would be soooo cool, but alas, my vacation funds are tied with the family and unfortunately they do not share the zeel I have for Rickenbacker guitars. What would be cool is to win a lottery of an all expenses paid trip for one lucky RRF member! :lol:

Expect nothing and you'll never be disappointed (and I mean that in an optimistic way).

I'd definitely call in sick that Friday and head to either SEA or PDX to fly to BUR, LAX, SNA, or LGB.

Unfortunately, due to foot-dragging by some parties involved in this event, as well as what appears to be a general lack of interest, we've given up on this project.
