Thanks Jon! Only if Crosby had a Ricky too.

Is that a 360V12 or just a 6 string in front of McGuinn? Looks like a MapleGlo as well....

Must be a 12 as it has 3 pups on it... what model is that?

It's a 370/12RM (Roger McGuinn Limited Edition). You can tell by the 5 equally-sized control knobs. The guitar is Mapleglo with a rounded top.

Jon,
On the Box Set, Hillman is Not doing all the bass on it, and it is Not all done on that V 63 bass. How do I know? Because John Jorgenson, who was at those sessions, personally told me about it. John plays bass on "Love that never dies".And he was using a G and L bass on that one.Not sure about Chris on a Rick bass in that video,[the "She Don't Love Nobody"] but I know in one Desert Rose video, Chris is using a Mapleglo doublebound 60s 360 or 365 that belongs to John.For sure Chris has the V 63 on the Orbison
Tribute.

I stated on an eariler post here that I was glad not to see snow. I've been off the road for a couple of years since then, and now that picture Don posted looks real refreshing! Both basses look real cool.

This question is Related to the beautiful Hillman's basses and also the issue of the model 1999 Fireglow-Limited Editionfor those Rickenbacker affectionados out there that follow the recent trends and additions..
I noticed the model 1999FG-LE is sporting a "FINGER REST".. This is what the Rose Morris models were issued in 1964.. I would like to acquire one.. Does anyone know where to get one or where Rickenbacker finds them?
Any assist would be appreciated..

Fascinating thread guys, thanks for the share!

Crosby did briefly play a Rick 370/6 (Jetglo) for a spell in early 1966.

I have yet to find out if he used it on any recordings.

Best, Christian
