A.P.Giannini? I thought he stopped making RIC copies and opened a bank. I heard it is doing very well.

Didn't Giannini make those weirdly shaped acoustics? I think my step-sister had one.

Craviolas!

Apparently they are still available, but I think the choice of model name in this case (GWSCRAP-12) is a little unfortunate.....

Giannini is VERY popular here, more then 100 years making instruments, in 70´s Giannini build a lot of RK replicas, in US, the most instrumments from Giannini is the Craviola...

"in 70´s Giannini build a lot of RK replicas"

RK = Rickenbacker?
