Only them and Buffalo Bros. got some. Two apiece? (I'm speculating!).
Some with axes to grind might say "trickling 'em out". But, knowing what it's like to produce a prototype or first-item when production is just commencing, I have to say, "well done, and many more!"
NCM's photos are beautifully done and show the flawlessness of these beauties.

John: I wonder how you know? (wink) Ain't it a cool feature?

I agree wholeheartedly. You get sort of immunized to product photography after awhile, because the pictures promise so much that the product often fails to deliver upon.
But in the case of these shots, they do show the perfection that you come to expect from Rickenbacker, and they only make you want the darned thing, because you know it's better than any picture could ever show completely.

Is it me, or has their been less interest in this model? I remember more discussions on the other models when they were released. This is truly a beautiful guitar.
Brian, I think that's due to the fact that not that many people have them yet. I'm sure the reviews and discussion will heat up when more board members receive their guitars. Tom said he was lying low specifically to prevent us from becoming too jealous ... at least until someone else gets one.
I agree, beautiful guitar. Beautiful work of art!!! I can't wait to receive mine .
Thanks Stuart. I have renewed faith. I was wondering because the anticipation seems more low key. I am anxious to receive mine as well. Looking forward to all the reviews.
