Ooops! Make that 3 of my old guitars! 1960 310, 1963 625 and a '62 420. Possibly even a '63 420.

LOVELY collection. You are blessed indeed.
A few cardinal rules have been broken however:
socks with sandals
exposed coil humbuckers on a CAPRI!!!

How do you like the 360F?

LOL-I was just padding around in my sandals, something quick and it was what I grabbed off the floor--but I do wear socks with em from time to time....I'm just a weirdo. Image

The guitars are a combination of two collections; The Capri shaped guitar with humbuckers is a mystery guitar bought by David--we think it is something more than just a Capri-shaped guitar--The body and neck is very old and could very well be a product of Roger Rossmeisl himself, from the design phase of the Capri guitars; it shares many design features of early Rickenbacker Capris, and has some features that are unique as well.
