"Further thread drift"? Well, it's for a good cause: 21 fretters.
A Rickenbacker bass is much like the Jaguar E car - perennially ultra-fashionable.

How's this for some fancy doubleneck playing?

I witnessed this first hand in March '86 when SRV toured Oz with The Fabulous Thunderbirds.

Hey Darren, you and Dave should do that at the SoCal confluence!! Image

Love those doublenecks, Dave!!
JETGLO should officially be renamed JETGLO ROCKS! :-)

Sergio, Star said that she really misses the 21 fretter (Jaclyn). I think it would be for the best to send it over now. Image

Have a look at this: http://www.cathedralstone.net/Pics/Rush2a.jpg

I think we're all safe if that can is opened. Image

Wow! What a collection of guitars. Miles and miles of fret wire, strings, and neck. Would love to have a go at a few of those.

Is that Hoffs? She looks like Crowe in that shot. Yes, Hoffs is much better looking.
