Where's the "like" button? You know, something about that song and it's arrangement reminds me a bit of the Flying Burrito Brothers.

Well, we're getting far afield from my original question of the use of a Rickenbacker BASS in country/western. Wonder if there are/were any others.

Paul, that is because in country they do use wooden log huts, but they're simply not swiss ski lodges! :wink:

If I think country and electric instruments somehow only bands with Fenders come to mind!

Good catch! Hard to catch because the shots are just close-ups and go by so fast.

So is it a 620 or a 360 or something else?

Looks like a 600 series, but don't know my models. It sounds wonderful in that song.

Paul, what about the Blue Boy bass that was used in Jim Reeves' band?

Here's me with my 4003 getting ready to play at a breast cancer benefit we did in drag a few months ago. Don't judge me.
