Actually, these photo step by step guides are brilliant.
Maybe we could put some together for a book or something.

Thanks, Brian. We wouldn't want any of our newer members to think using bleach on a Rickenbacker finish is O.K.

I think we should go over this step by step, all together, at the next confluence.
Either that, or else go over Scotty's place....
Are Jaffa cakes and Sailor's Rum available here in the States?

And another brilliant instructional piece by Scotty!!

I have to restring my 620-12 and 360-12. Using the Scotty method, I better plan on taking the week off from work.

Scotty's confused (surprise...)...
I told him to mix the bleach with the rum and coke.
Oh, well, no harm done.

Here's the best way yet to string up a Ric 12.
1. On the way to the airport, drop guitar off at tech.
2. Fly over and spend a week at Scotty's palatial retreat in the highlands.
3. On the way home from the airport, pick up guitar from tech.
