Rickresource Rickenbacker Forum

Martin Smith of Delirious has used a maple glow 360. Like David, I use a Rickenbacker in our contemporary worship team and hold the same status as "not famous" as well.

Melissa and Mark,
All this talk of of Rez, Kaiser, and Darrel Mansfield leads me to realize one important fact: we are getting old. I really wanted to see Petra farewell tour last Tuesday in Boise (out of respect for Bob Hartman), but I was too busy...but my Pastor and a couple of my teachers said ...

Carl: I also own a 360 and it sounds like our taste in overdrive are about the same. I never play my Ric without a compressor. I am using a Boss unit, but there are a lot of better compressors out there. I use just a little compression and sustain, but I do bring the output level up to match the ...

Bob, thanks for finding that poster. I ran out of time looking for a poster so I bought a guitar wall hanger from from my local guitar store and hung my 360 on it. It actually looks pretty good up there, the only down side is that I don't get to play it at home as much. It looks like that this is ...

Does anyone know where I can get a poster of a 360 Fireglow? I would like to get it up on my office wall before school starts.
Thanks, Paul

Ok, here is my best guess. I say that a large display or business will feature something Rickenbacker in it on a very grand scale.

Michael, I saw Bob Carlisle once with Allies(many years ago) and once by himself. Neither time was he using a Ric. I couldn't find any pics of him with one on the web either. Did you see him with a Rickenbacker? If so, where? I could try to look some more.

Tony,
If you do this, tell us how it turns out. Thanks

Like the rest of you, I think that John Hall is doing a great job, but I really love the idea that John Mckelvy had. Basically just expand the 380 series. I would love to see a 380 that came in fireglow, had a rosewood finger board, and a tradional Ric pickguard. This last one isn't as important ...

Ken, Thank-you very much. I will get to work on it. Paul

Ken,
My Blues Junior does have the green circuit board and I would love to fix that hum. I use that amp live every week, and if I have the reverb on, it bothers the soundman. So I have just left the reverb off for the last year or two. So if you would, I would love to have that link on how to fix ...

I have both a Fender Blues Jr. and a Fender Champ and both of them make great practice amps. The Blues Jr can actually get fairly loud, so you can even do small gigs with it. The only thing I have against my Blues Jr. is the reverb can really hum sometimes. Pity. It detracts from a good sounding ...

Tony, I know what you are saying about 4x12 having awesome bass response, but I am always have a Shure 57 in front of my amps now. When it was just my amp pushing the room, I really loved my half-stack. But I haven't played that way in 10 years. The first couple of years, I still used the half stack ...

I have never plugged my Ric into a Bassman reissue, but I had used my 65 blackface Bassman going through a Marshall 4/10 cab with great success. It sounded very nice. My wife who plays bass "borrowed" it once to push her Ampeg 4/10 cab when her solid state unit went out and has never bothered to ...

I love Third Day, I saw them this year in Nampa, Idaho. It was a great concert. Off their Offerings cd, song number 6 (My hope is in you); the intro sounds like a Ric 12 string to my ears.
