My two pride and joys

Post by JakeK »

Found this photo of my two Rickenbackers that I took a few months back, back in October. Thought I'd share this photo with you all. Note how awesome the FG finishes are.

Note: Yes, I know the tailpiece on the V64 is on backwards. Blame my guitar tech if you want to blame anyone. Is there a "right" way to put on a trapeze tailpiece?

...The other way? :wink:

If a 12 can be strung backwards/upside down/ with the main/harmony strings reversed, it can also be strung with the trapeze the other way, and there's always the next string change. :)


All kidding aside, nice pic, nice guitars. :D
