Welcome aboard, BuddyClontz! I'm RockandRollFan1991, and I'm definately one of the many people who enjoy your sound!

Howdy,

Keep those vids coming! I especially like the "I Can't Explain" clip from Shindig. Talk about energy! It's a shame that Pete and his Rickenbacker weren't included just a bit more by the camera people. Outside of the Beatles and the Byrds, I can't think of a clip that is a better advertisement for Rickenbacker.

They're singing live, not playing live, we think. According to legend, Tony Hicks played his 360/12 set up as a 6 string. Anyone else know for sure?

A 620/12, from Mary Chapin Carpenter, who features the jangly sound on a lot of her music. John Jennings, her collaborator, is a great guitar player and, we suspect, a Ric fan, although he isn't playing one here.
