John, Your new column has just instantly become my favorite on the Forum. If there's one way to get my attention it's to mention those two words "vintage" and "Rickenbacker" together in the same sentence. Three cheers from me!

Nice job, John! If anybody gets the chance to see his band, by all means do so, great music era and playing from this trio.
It's nice to know that two of my Ricks fit the category here!

Oreca, sadly it means you are also now considered vintage.
Haha, I'm barely legal!

Welcome, John!
I anticipate this to become a clearing-house for accurate information as well as well-seasoned opinions on vintage Rickenbacker instruments.
I am looking forward to lots of educational fun!

Glen, LOL! I'll be counting on you to right my wrongs on many things. With your contributions, we'll have some great discussions no doubt. Keep me grounded on the 325s, please!
Andy, many thanks for the kind words. Thanks to all of you!

He's a nice fellow, that John Simmons. His momma raised him well!

LOL...I'm sure she would say she tried to, anyway..
God bless her.
She believed in my musical ability to the point where she justified the need for me to get my first Rickenbacker bass, which I still have.

There has to be something right with John, as his girlfriend puts up with his sniffing habit!
