What's up with That???

"Paul Kantner has a Rick 12 I have Never seen him with, a Mapleglo Double bound 370-12, with a bizarre 7 knob control panel!!! What's up with That???" Ric12dr.

All that comes to mind, we are talking Airplane Gear here, is that it possibly made a stop at the Alembic Workshop prior to that pictures gig.
Just a thought.

..or at least pre- Alembic, given the era this was in, no doubt.In any case, Kantner with a Double bound Rick is a new thing, given the bulk of pictures of him that are out there with roundtop 360-12s.

Model  370/12--This  was  the  three pickup
model  played   by  Roger  McGuinn  of  the
Byrds.
              Although  not  listed  as  a  regular
production model until  June 1980,  the  fac-
tory consistently made  370/12  guitars after
the mid 1960s.   Some had the special wiring
used by McGuinn, the so-called Byrd wiring.
The   factory  did   other  custom  wiring  on
370/12 guitars:  one made in December 1968
had   three volume controls  and  three tone
controls.

That is a great book I've had it for several years now.

No RIC content...

I saw Jorma last night. He was great. Played two solid sets. Was accompanied by mandolin player extrodinaire: Barry Mitterhoff

Jorma mentioned a fall acoustic HOT TUNA tour and said that Barry had been "conscripted" for that as well.

Did an incredible version of the tune GOOD SHEPHERD off of JA's VOLUNTEERS
