Lennon's 325/12 before it was sent to him!

[(jeff)]

Here's an interesting photo I stumbled upon featuring Francis Hall's wife Catherine and a Rickenbacker rep examining John Lennon's 325/12 prior to being shipped to him! Don't know if this has been posted before. I thought is was worth sharing.

"John's not going to like this "shorty" TRC. He'll want one at least as big as George's."

"Who's this fellow we made this for?"
"Don't know, but he isn't very tall I guess, look at this"

Why don't we hold this guitar like this, the two of us.
That'll be fun in 53 years from now!

Looks like someone was fiddling with the knobs. I wonder if John changed the settings or left it factory set?
