Many others have come and gone during the decade, but this one I'll never part with.

Not sure where the rest of the story went... but about 3 weeks before this auspicious day, on our 15th anniversary, my wife had presented me with a single red rose and the immortal words "Go ahead... order your Rickenbacker". Thus, a 35-year-old dream was satisfied...

Oh, and we just celebrated our 25th - she's pretty special, too :)

No memory's better than the one when your favorite girl tells you to get your favorite instrument. Great story, Dave.

Happy Anniversaries! What a great story. My wife gave me the greatest gift earlier this year (no not a baby!) - my 2002 Rickenbacker 360/12! :lol:
(We celebrated our 10-year anniversary last December :D )
2010 360/12c63 FG
2002 360/12 MG (mod with 7.4K scatterwound toasters, push/pull switch for 0.0047uF bridge cap)

That's a beautiful guitar and it sounds like you've got a great wife! Happy 25th!

I have NO idea what to do with those skinny stringed things... I'm just a bass player...
