That's a hot pic. Is it your guitar?
Re: Brian Medway's avatar
I wish it were Kenny,
I had that exact same guitar in the 60's and I foolishly sold it after I had owned it for about 12 years. I found that pic on the net. I believe that the 375 FG Rickenbacker in the photo belongs to a forum member. I use it to remind me of how stupid I was to let it go and that if I ever see another one like it then I will move heaven and earth to obtain it.

Kenny, John Williams owned that guitar for a while....it's a '63 375, a smack-down beautiful guitar. He sold it to a guy out in California years ago....

Kenny,
This is a b/w picture of me taken in 1966. It's poor quality but you can clearly see my much loved 375.

Nothing will get you dead quicker than being deadly serious about yourself.
Re: Brian Medway's avatar
Colour was available but we used the much cheaper black and white film. I have a very small amount of Scottish blood in me obviously.
Thanks a lot for drawing the comparison in such a gleeful manner Sheena.
No, the ravages of time were not kind to me...... but you'll certainly get your chance Scotty to find out what gravity, and a slowing metabolism does for you.

Re: Brian Medway's avatar
Well, in fact, i don't think time was really unkind to you. I'd say, you haven't changed that much. Still easy to recognize.

Thanks and a nice try Sheena,
I figured when I posted that pic I was in for a roasting. Were you laughing your head off as you perpetrated that falsehood?
Scotty, I am keeping count of the pot shots.
Edit:
Is that a pic taken in Scotland? I have never seen the sun appear in Scotland, all I have seen is Scotch mist!. By the way you know that despite popular belief otherwise, it was in fact two Scots that invented copper wire. They were arguing over a penny. But we digress.........................

I understand that, with my usual sarcastic attitude to life, compliments from me will probably always be taken as a joke or maybe even worse, but...Thanks and a nice try Sheena,

i wasn't laughing this time, Sir, and neither was it a "falsehood"(at least, not intended). Believe it or not.Nothing will get you dead quicker than being deadly serious about yourself.
