New Guitar Day

I purchased a 360 LH MG from fellow RR member Richard Bengston several years ago. All he asked was right of first refusal if I decided to sell it.

I saw this on "Dave's" website last week. I called Richard first and he's getting his MG back. I now have this. Thanks Richard! Thanks Dave's!

Thanks ...

Re: Just wanted to say hi. Also want a LEFTY ric :)

I'm a little late to the welcome wagon but "Welcome!"

I'm a lefty with a 360MG purchased from another forum member. You'll never know when you'll find one but it's worth the wait.

Re: Vintage Rickenbacker ad - Tura Satana

Paul,

I grew up in Calumet City, Illinois. Graduated HS there in 1969.

It was widely known as "sin city" back in the day.

Later of course it became the home town of Jake and Elwood Blues.

Re: Welcome Wally26w (new Rickenbacker owner)

johnallg---I accept your sympathies and send them in return. While I'm more on the production end of things than caps and resistors kind of guy it's a strangely fascinating business. I wish they never had invented surface mount technology though!

Re: Welcome Wally26w (new Rickenbacker owner)

Thanks Richard! I saw my first Rickenbacker back in the 1960's thanks to the Beatles. In 1968 or so a locally popular band where I grew up had one of the guitarists using a Ric 12 string for some of their songs. Fast forward through a nearly 40 year career in audio/broadcast/television (TV for the ...

Re: Just One

Richard's Maple-Glo 360 now has a new home, Mine!

We met through another board several years ago, we're the same age and left-handed. We share the guitar hobby. He's in Houston, I'm in Dallas. We met today in between the two cities and I came home with his 360.

I wiped his fingerprints off of it ...
