I restored this guitar completely--repaired the top and gave it a complete refinish, back in 2007.

Graham did have his hands on it, for a few minutes, as did many at SCARF 2007. Aitch is playing it here (far right):

Notice Gary Clauson (far left, above)playing its closest surviving relative, a 12 string BB 700C, which I built for the same customer and painted it with the same BB paint, so it would be an exact match.

In the back row are Richard Bengston, playing his 730S LH, and our good friend Graham playing the AFG 730L that was sold to George Boccanfuso and eventually made its way to Craig Witty.

Thanks for the update Paul.
I was suprised not to see it in the RRF gallery. :(

BB on Rickenbacker acoustics looks fantastic. Totally class.

Maybe one day...............sigh. :lol:
