Ben Hall posted another photo of a Fireglo one in his stories last week - but no information along with it.

Looks like we may be welcoming back a long lost model to the standard catalogue before long…

I was the second person in Canada on the list with L&M - and still haven't got a call yet. I suspect Rickenbacker hasn't sent any our way yet. :/ Last week ric facebook said they were making 4005xc’s again. Any idea how many are being produced? I had my name put on one (the last of maybe 5 fireg...

It's FG, SN = 21 13784.

Week 13 is beginning of April, so they are moving!

What do you think so far? I saw a post on IG that was just recorded through a phone's mic and I wasn't floored, but I'm still really excited for mine!

Cheers!

Thanks again, guys!

Mark - go ahead and share! I'd even appreciate it.

Cheers,

We've got some more stuff coming out in the next couple weeks. The records are being pressed now, and we're releasing one song or video a week until the release. I'll post the next video for you guys in a couple weeks.

...And it's got a Ric in it!

Seems like I've been dealing with the most competent and knowledgeable staff - despite being "backordered" by the "notoriously slow Rickenbacker," the case has arrived today!

A shot from a show this last weekend, and another from the same venue, but last fall (both with my 2011):

Thanks to everyone for their info. And, John, thanks for your authoritative answer. I'll be calling the store today to investigate a little further, and armed with this information I think I may well be able to push things through a little bit. Or, at least get my money back and take my business els...

Hey, guys: I ordered a vintage re-issue case from Long and McQuade almost a month ago along with a set of strings. The strings came in a while ago, and when I went to pick them up today I asked after the case. The sales guy told me it was back-ordered, and then gave me the usual "Rickenbacker i...

Actually, the D on the Boomers is a 65 instead of the Ric 55!
