Playability?

You can dress a dog like a chicken, but you can't make it cluck.

Re: Rose Morris Rickenbacker Gallery
Not been on the sherry.
Just saying that just because a guitar may have many disirable cosmetic features, it doesn't necessarily follow that it's a good guitar.
I've not played many vintage Rics, it has to be said, but the ones I have played have all been Krap. Looked nice though.......

Re: Rose Morris Rickenbacker Gallery
I'd recommend you try to play a few more vintage Rob so you can get a more rounded view. Maybe Graham could help out as I believe he has one or two lying around...fireglo67 wrote:Not been on the sherry.

Scotty's 1997 is a great player. Terrific sustain. It just makes you want to play it. The FG has aged nicely too. It'll only get better.fireglo67 wrote:Tone?![]()

Re: Rose Morris Rickenbacker Gallery
Sounds like you regret letting that one go Graham, I'm sure if you ask nicely he'd do you a straight reverse trade for one of those beat up, badly playin', old 1993's of yours...8mileshigh wrote: Scotty's 1997 is a great player.

Rob, are you absolutely sure you've not been on the sherry?
