Danny, it's Canadian customs and NAFTA paperwork. They sure are sporadic.

Dan: I finally received my teeshirts and mug. It took one week to get the package to Canada Customs and a couple of weeks before they processed it. Then roughly another week to send it to me. I predict you will have yours next week.

Tony: I cannot get enough of your photo of the 360/12V64, teeshirt and mug. The background and setup is first rate. It makes me want to come to the UK for a visit.

Tony, I've been very busy here with finals, but I'm taking the time now to agree with Peter 100%. If I was doing a catalog for this type of thing, it's exactly the flavo(u)r of product photography that I'd want!

My compliments. Fabulous shot! How about some out-takes?

Thanks for the support, guys. I did not give up, yet...I guess I was just a little upset, yesterday, sorry about that!
Tony, I just love that shot with your guitar... Aren't you the one that's doing those paintings? This would be good inspiring photo, don't you think! Image

Hey Paul,
How about some Ric Forum mousepads?

The products you've seen--t-shirts and mugs--are what I have permission from RIC to do.

Incidentally, only TWO MORE DAYS for the guitar mugs. They will become unavailable Sunday at midnight, PST.

Bass shirts and mugs will be available as soon as I get the prototypes back and approved, in the next day or two. I'll post an announcement.

Thanks for your kind remarks chaps & glad you like the photo. You are more than welcome to visit at any time Peter...you would be a guest of honour! I'm sure that Paul will make his way over at some point...he has a standing invitation as well.

Dan, we can go on all day about this & that on Rickenbacker gtrs & basses, but the bottom line is that they are totaly inspirational in everyway. They inspire me to play, write music & paint. I can't pass one of my gtrs without picking it up & playing it. I have said before that John Halls Rickenbacker manufactures more than just beautifully crafted, stunningly gorgous gtrs........he manufactures inspiration!

I'm still waiting for the bass T-shirt to come out.
And while we're on the topic, I did a bit of perspiring yesterday with my 4003. I played an outdoor gig in the middle of the afternoon. It was about 85 degrees and very sunnny. As usual, the Ric sounded great.

I'm also waiting for the bass T-shirts and mugs to come out. I was also hoping to just have to place only one order to get a couple of guitar mugs with bass mugs and t-shirts. Oh well, no guitar mugs for me.

I got a nice little surprise from the UPS man today, my Rick Bass Tee and Mug. Wow what super turnaround time, I just order it a few days ago! Just like my last order the Tee and Mug look lovely, just lovely. Excellent job lads, keep those ideas and products coming.
