I prefer my RRF on the forum instead of fb, but simply refusing to try fb altogether is throwing the baby out with the bathwater, imho. It's been a great tool for me to keep in touch with people and share my music.

I'm here from Downunder, loving my astonishing 700S/12
lovingly crafted by PW. Welcome to other Aussies in the forum.

Welcome, Warren! Glad to see you make it here.

Lovely guitar, that you need to tell all about to the folks here.

This extraordinary instrument was a parting gift from my Dad who passed away in August 2012 at the age of 99.

I only made Paul's build deadline by a matter of days in early 2013 and is one of the very last Rickenbacker acoustic orders
he received before the end of the build contract Paul had for Rickenbacker.

I originally was thinking of a 700/C Comstock as that is all I had seen but then discovered the Shasta and decided at the last minute to change it to a Shasta/700S-12.

It took Paul almost 4 years to fulfil the order because of the huge work load he had but it's a masterpiece of exquisite craftsmanship beyond anything I could have imagined.

The extraordinary blend of colours both front and back is amazing, A personal added touch is the bridge which has an Australian gem stone place in the base of the specially built bridge.

I also had Paul fit an LRBaggs Anthem pickup as well and the incredible Ameritage Gold guitar case.

Tuning is an absolute dream but having the high strings on the other side of the Octave (Like the Rickenbacker Electric 12's) takes a little getting used to but
helps with that rich deep sound that Rics are known for.

Enjoy the photos and my eternal thanks to my precious Dad and to Paul Wilzcynski for making this amazing instrument a reality.

and another

I still visit the for sale section almost daily and the basses section often, but mostly for scrolling through to see if there are postings which are interesting for me. I still hardly visit any other section.

Still here too.
