There have been times when I have walked into guitar stores, usually Guitar Centers OR other types with commissioned sales people, and I KNOW they are going to start selling me the latest and greatest guitar. So, when I see sales people start walking over I look around to see how many Rickenbackers they have. Usually, it is none or few. Then, when they ask "can I help you" I say "yes, I would like to buy a ... (insert Rickenbacker model they don't have)" and they get all flustered. Some don't know what Rickenbackers are and need to "check their computer." I even asked about a Rickenbacker Lightshow at one store.

Anyways, it tells them too things. One, they cannot help me because they don't have what I want. Two, I like classy guitars!

Keep it up Michael!

By the way, I love Gibsons and I love Rickenbackers. My 360/12CW and my 1970 Gibson SG Standard are my two most prized possessions.
