Hello to all my new friends!
I have a RARE opportunity to own an inexpensive 1968 366/12 Convertible but it is missing the all important comb.

My question is....can I locate a comb somewhere or will it be a completely impossible buy for me? Would Rickenbacker have one in the vault somewhere or are there any Luthiers out here in Rickland that can assist me?

I don't want this once in a lifetime deal to slip through my hands but I also don't want to wind up with a great big nothing if the comb is unattainable.

Please help me ASAP as this deal has a clock running on it.

Thanks all!
Russ

Russell: I consider that you will have a hard time finding the comb that you seek. Having said that, the instrument is a vintage Rickenbacker 12 string, in fireglo I trust and so it is likely to be a nice find should the price be right.

If you like the sound and playability and the price is right, I would go for it. Your hunt for an original comb will be a long one though.
