New Rickenbacker Dealer in Atlanta

Post by Len »

I stopped by Atlanta Discount Music this weekend to buy a new tuner. I asked about a 330/12 hanging there and found out they are a Rickenbacker dealer again. Yeah!

Cool, last I checked they were on the waiting list. That was a few years back.
Great Ramp In My Opinion.

Always good to hear of a new dealer!

They used to be an authorized dealer, but haven't been for a few years now. Great to hear that they're back in w/RIC. George & Marshall are good guys.

Great to hear, especially that Midtown Music is no longer a dealer.

Yah, it's a real shame that MM went under. They were great. :oops: Last guitar I bought there was a '62 Mustang for $350.00.

I went to Atlanta Discount the other day and they were talking about about you, Kenny! One of the guys said he used to work with you at GC. :D

Indeed. Although technically the store didn't go under - the owner retired and closed the retail shop. He still owns the building and runs music lessons in it.

Were they calling me unprintable names? :P

'Tis true, I've worked with a couple of those guys before.

Kenny is famous. I was in Wuxtry a couple weeks ago. I know Kenny worked there too and I mentioned to the owner that I recently bought something from him, and his response was "Was it a Rickenbacker?"

When Midtown Music was closing I bought a load of guitars and related equipment. Still kicking myself over not getting a 325 and a 660.

I went by there this afternoon; that 330/12 was looking mighty nice. It'll be a good day to the lucky one who snags it.
