Thanks for the info. I think $1500 is about right, since the only thing not original is the refin (and case). Here are some other pictures. Image/ http://archives.rickresource.com/oldattachments/41083.jpg http://archives.rickresource.com/oldattachments/41084.jpg http://archives.rickresource ...

Oldest Ric on the Board?
I have a Rickenbacher (with the "h" on the headstock logo plate) Ken Roberts model from the 30's. 17 frets clear of the mahogany "Spanish guitar" body, incredible "Pat. Pend." horseshoe magnet pick-up, vibrola tail piece. Plays and sounds great. Any others out there? Any idea of value?
Thanks.
Thanks.
