Maybe to give us Rick fans in the USA plenty of time to rearrange our finances in preparation for the NAMM show announcements....?

If you had read from the beginning you would know.

They should continue to make this bass until ... forever. (And I've got my v63).

Any chance that Rickenbacker will introduce these models as standard production? 360C63 is breathtaking... and I would also suggest RoMo 1993 reissue :D

I let Google Toolbar translate the page...that thing really should be called the Giggle toolbar...

Goodfellow made Gigubaggu
With Orijinaruhadokesu (OHSC I'm guessing!)

Beautiful, gorgeous bass mind you. Please RIC, release them worldwide? Go on...you know you want to...
