A Happy Rickenbacker Birthday

[Dave12]

A few months ago I found my “birthday present” (early)from my wife… a Rickenbacker 381/12 V69 MG – what a beautiful instrument! Sounds terrific (even with my poor playing) through the other half of my birthday present, a Traynor YCS50. When my birthday finally came around this month, my family threw a surprise party for me. Thought you all would enjoy seeing the cake!

Regards,
Dave

Someone went to a lot of effort so you could enjoy your day Dave. That is very cool!

I'll bet those full width inlays were the yummiest part of the cake !!
By the way, is Maple Glo cake sort of Yellow cake flavor, Lemon-flavor or more towards the Vanilla spectrum ??

Sounds like you have a very appreciative family and that its been a great Ricken-birthday celebration !
