Re: My Banjoline story
Welcome Peter. Great story. I am the guy with the banjoline video on youtube you recently commented on. Thanks for sharing your story! I love to discover other music people have made with Banjolines. The $15K price you were quoted in LA 20 years ago was dreaming then, and still steep now. I got ...

Re: My Banjoline story
Peter thanks for this wonderful story regarding the banjoline and indeed electric banjos and how you found them. A nice bit of New York music history as well. I would not have imagined the Airline as a banjo, so fully marks on creativity. Do you have any recordings of the banjoline with your group ...

My Banjoline story
In the mid 90s, I started collecting vintage guitars when I was living in the East Village of Manhattan. In 1998, I started a band called Feathermerchants. Kind of dream/folk/rock, female lead singer me as the principal songwriter. I think it was 1999 or 2000, I went into a guitar store down the ...

Re: Rickenbacher Type 1
I tried that but it is only model numbers. Is there some model number associated with this? Also, if you look down the forum page, there is a 34 but it doesn't look anything like mine. I took screen shots of the schematics and the inner working and I'm sending it to the radio guy. Is it possible ...

Rickenbacher Type 1
I’ll spare you the story of how I got this, but I’ll just say that it was a throw in with another guitar, I paid nothing for it, and it had a price sticker in it that said $4. It’s been out of my possession for about 25 years in storage and I finally have it with me. It didn’t work so I had to send ...
