Re: acoustics
Jeff, RIC closed down their acoustic shop in late summer of 2006. At that time I acquired the license to handbuild the Rick acoustics in my own shop, using the same specifications, methods and even the wood which RIC had stored for acoustic construction.
A number of Forumites and one dealer (Mike Parks) have ordered Rickenbacker acoustics from me, and about ten have been delivered so far.

Re: acoustics
Do you use one of those rolling "torture device"(Kenny Howes) rolling, wheel-shaped,pipe clamp trolley setups for holding mulitple acoustic bodies in place while they're being glued like RIC has?jingle_jangle wrote:Jeff, RIC closed down their acoustic shop in late summer of 2006.

Re: acoustics
No. I only glue up one at a time, and in my small space devoted to assembly of acoustic bodies there's no room for something that big.
