What about those 24 fret f-hole guitars ? that's what I thought was going to be out on the main floor.

We had the pictures of the bodies and Mr. J Hall CEO President of RIC giving that little comment about
Waiting when a poster was looking for a Pete Townsend Guitar.

What happened ??

Holy schneikes, you guys move FAST. :shock:

Can I just take a second to compliment Rickenbacker on the coolness of the new fretboard wood? I'm not sure what kind they're using nowadays, but it sure has some great-looking grain. Very distinctive.

Damon, I believe that comment was about the Greenglo 330S model was put up for sale on eBay later, which is possibly the guitar John was referring to?

It's great to see lefties again! Kudos to RIC!
If there isn't a 12 string Rickenbacker playing at my funeral, I'm leaving.

It'd be great to see MC 350 released to the public. I've wanted one for YEARS and I think it's the coolest guitar on the planet. I've been lucky enough to hold the real thing, and it was a great experience.

Collin - this was a connected thread and I think that the pic and a reference came from FB.

Hmmm, seeing that Trans Green 4004 bass had me thinking of a 381 in that finish with gold hardware (RIC HBs)/plastic and a big ol' gold Bigsby. Kind of Gretsch-y, I know. :D Wouldn't even need a showy piece of maple either.
