Warning.......Scottish humour can be devasting to your Rickenbacker.

Thanks, Brian. We wouldn't want any of our newer members to think using bleach on a Rickenbacker finish is O.K.

I think we should go over this step by step, all together, at the next confluence.
Either that, or else go over Scotty's place....
Are Jaffa cakes and Sailor's Rum available here in the States?

And another brilliant instructional piece by Scotty!!
I have to restring my 620-12 and 360-12. Using the Scotty method, I better plan on taking the week off from work.

I have already received my invite to Scotty's palatial retreat in the highlands. Did you not get yours?

I told him to mix the bleach with the rum and coke.
Oh, well, no harm done.

How the f*** do you get boot polish and bleach off a fireglo 330?
Re: The definative way to string up a Rickenbacker 12
Here's the best way yet to string up a Ric 12.
1. On the way to the airport, drop guitar off at tech.
2. Fly over and spend a week at Scotty's palatial retreat in the highlands.
3. On the way home from the airport, pick up guitar from tech.
