But the most fun still is hearing my own Rick's when I play them myself. (this does not necesarely make me my hero.)

Well, I wouldn't exactly call him a "hero" but Kantner is obviously the RIC player I have listened to and enjoyed the most:

Grew up on the usual suspects Geddy , Squire, etc.


Few alternates - FOXTON !!! w/the lesser known Weller :D Image
The Stone Roses' Mani Image Pollock'd no less.

and although many pics would suggest different (lotta Ric/12 in the Smiths) Johnny Marr.

That Squire pic is great.

Played drums for a Jam tribute (one time Halloween gig), and the guitarist had the Weller Whamm ric.
I've seen one other (kinda sloppy interpretation) , but this one was amazing . The story was that some guy had it commissioned by a friend
at Ric (Santa Ana ? ; is that where one of the factories is/was ?) , who had access to Weller's. The guy then flipped
it to a Mod collector (not a guitarist) who loaned it to our guitarist for the show. I hear it was about 4-5k .
