Rickresource Rickenbacker Forum

Thanks Bob. I am looking forward to this newer look into Rickenbacker history. I wonder what made these researchers explore Rickenbacker over the other possibilities. Perhaps they will let us know.

I suspect of interest to many on the RickResource Forum is a new Rickenbacker publication entitled Rickenbacker Guitars Out of the Frying Pan and into the Fireglo. The authors are Martin and Paul Kelly and as I understand it the book offers 350 classic photos chronicling the era from 1931 to 2000. T...

I have to say that I had a 450/12 from 1966 at one point and the very thin finish on the fretboard served me well. It should help that Factory in getting more out the door sooner as well with somewhat less labour. Also, it will make a refret easier as well. As for the look, I have become accustomed ...

Teb, it is my understanding that Paul has relocated to Europe.

Time to change the strings on my 350.

Nathan, a great report. Strawberry Fields Forever!

Let's hear what's happening this weekend for you with your Rickenbacker! Maybe a string change for me with my 12 string.

Thanks Sergio, your comments are appreciated. Thanks to all who have worked on the Rickenbacker Register all these years. It has grown to be a valuable historic account of these fine instruments.

Jason an excellent idea. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the video Sergio. Always nice to see a Rickenbacker.

Thanks to all who have checked in here and left comments about their Rickenbacker experiences as of late. It feels good to see others doing what they love as we begin to return to more pleasurable moments.

Jason, I look forward to it.

Well here we are again with our plans for the weekend. I am a week further ahead with my knowledge of how the Boss RC-500 functions. Wow, there is quite a bit to know. Hopefully I will get something recorded with the Model 350 this time. Please let us know what you are up to with regard to weekend p...
