How about this Rickenbacker on stage?
Life, as with music, often requires one to let go of the melody and listen to the rhythm

Never, ever drool on your surf shirt. It wrecks the solo.

Hey, that's pretty cool! It's like he just added water to his old 325!

It's great to see him playing a Rick again, and nailing that Creedence sound with it. I'm glad to see he's kept all of the toasters this time!

Yeah, but you can't play lead on a Rick, remember!

All that pulling on the vibrato and it stayed in tune, too! Dual old Kustoms heads, roll-tucked cab. Great video.

For those that question not seeing many Rics on stage or believe the misconception that you can't play lead on Rics --- go see Mike Campbell and Tom Petty on tour. MC does some scorching leads on his arsenal of different Rics.
