My original idea was to count the countries, I'm sure Peter has all this info in his database anyway, but I though it would be interesting to see how many different countries we represent, but this way we can also see how many people there are from each country. We are at 4 countries now: USA, Perú, England, and Belgium. How many from the US?
I used to play with a singer, geetar picker from Nashville who's name is Charlie Doherty, during the late 70's, early 80's in Ma, but he got sick of us Yankees (or the snow) I think and went back home, ring any bells Big G?

Me, I'm from Lisbon, Portugal, Europe. I believe I'm the only Portuguese national in the Forum. However, there are quite a lot of ardent Rickenbacker followers in Lisbon alone. Well, shame on them for not posting in this Forum!
A Rickenbacker bass is much like the Jaguar E car - perennially ultra-fashionable.

I'm probably the only Chinese/Mandarin speaking member in this forum. No RIC dealers in my country but I've managed, with painstaking efforts and very high shipping cost and custom taxing, to own 3 Rickenbacker basses...and looking forward to getting more. I'm quite sure there are no more than a dozen Ricks here in my country.

Very proud to be a member of the Forum!

Springfield, Illinois, population 110,000 - salute! Land of Lincoln, Mr. Lincoln's Hometown, Home of Lincoln's Tomb, and the site of too many curios shops to count.

No Honest Abe's Rickenbacker Shop, though.

Please let me include Canada, where the cold weather is developing faster than I care to mention. I shutter to think what images this photo will conjure up!

Life, as with music, often requires one to let go of the melody and listen to the rhythm
