Let's get back to discussing those virgin maidens who worked at the mythic San Jose factory. :twisted: Oh, and for the 100th anniversary let's take that tour. Come to think of it I probably took that tour back in 1968 or 1969. :D

They miss you too, Kenny. In fact, they just mentioned that to me this afternoon.

Sadly, they moved en masse to Wales. They're well known there now as "Rarebits".

All of those virgins from the San Jose factory were fat and ugly. I liked the ones from the Pebble Beach factory better. They were skinny, cute, and rich! :mrgreen:

I wouldn't say there are a "ton" of Rickenbackers on eBay, compared to other well-known makes. Right now, if you look under musical instruments/guitar/electric, there are 163 Rickenbacker auctions. Compare that to 5,045 Fenders. 2,523 Gibsons. 664 PRS.

This is more reason to move to the South East!! :lol:

I'm not exactly sure how the pricing works since I'm on the production side, but our last rate increase case that went in front of the utilities' commission resulted in a rate decrease. We haven't had a real increase in over twenty years. That's residential, but I think it is used as the base for figuring factory costs, too.

California has never been known for intelligent energy policy.
