Rare Photo - McCartney Plays 4001S

Post by rickboy88 »

I found it! I was cleaning out my garage and basement today, and came across a fairly rare photo of McCartney playing the 4001S at a session. I've never seen it anywhere else, and think I brought it up once on the Ric corporate forum. I cut it out of some 70's "Beatle" magazine or something. I've kept it with other Beatles related stuff. This image was a big reason why I (finally) got my 4001S in 1984.

It has already been painted at the time of the photo.

I always liked the one with the capo. I use one when we play "Tomorrow Never Knows".
