Sepp! This is very important! First, pull over to the side of the road and turn off the car's ignition. THEN proceed to give your attention to the book! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Thanks for the concern Paul! but, my vehicle is like my office, I spend 12 hours a day in it so I need to be able to multitask. Beside, it's not like I'm reading while doing mach 2 with all the lights going! :lol: I promise I'll keep it under 60 mph, while reading!! :D

Let's hope that the UK will eventually catch up with the shipping of your book Paul. Amazon UK are still quoting mid-August for delivery. :(

Whatever - I really hope you gain the plaudits you deserve for putting all this together¬

I received mine yesterday 6/24/13. It is superb. I'll order another to keep on the shelf, nice and minty fresh.

Came a day early today! It is beautiful and all I'd hoped for these 7 years. Major kudos to Paul! Also thanks to Hal Leonard Publishing for believing.

Just got my copy in the mail and it looks beautiful. I love reading accurate information about one of my favorite subjects-Rickenbacker basses. And the photos are wonderful. Good job!
