I've got a FG 360F right between the eyes...

I love my RICS but sorry, I'm not going to ink it to my body forever, that's just silly. Of course IMHO. Now if you could put checked binding on your body somehow now that would be a different story.Image

I doubt you'll find enough checkered binding to cover your body. I'm having enough trouble finding enough to redo my 4001

The Edinburgh tattoo is the only one I'd ever be interested in.......

I have a Ric T-shirt but thats as far as I'm willing to go. But if I were the tatooing type, I could see putting a simple outline of a 360 somewhere.

Whats the story with the Ric coffee mugs? .... being fairly new here I've seen mention of them but dont know how to get one.

The guitar mugs are no longer available but the bass ones are still OK for another 3 weeks or so.

Interesting thread. I've thought about getting the "R", as in the tailpiece. Anyone have a closeup pic of one?

I've got blue flames tattooed on my wrist to match the blue flames on my 4001. Does that count?

Where would you have the 'R' tailpiece tattood, Scott? On your 'tail'?.

Guess you could always heat one up and sit on it, although that's more like 'branding' isn't it? Image

My allegiance to Rickenbacker is not (yet?) at the point where I would consider tatts!!
