Which is fine,
But Rickresource is a community and as such we have rules which you chose to disrespect by artificially raising your post counter.
And if that not enough, you also chose to break the rules by changing your real name in your profile...

Thanks for stopping by Jordan. He will not be back.

I thought the Marketplace here was set up as a convenience for the membership – the forum has been around a lot longer. And by membership I mean the conglomeration of like minded folks, here, who participate here in usually a mannerly, friendly and humorous fashion – bonding into a somewhat extended family. We like folks with ideas and questions. We like cool stories and music created on Ric’s (other instruments too). We like Basses and Guitars of all kinds but really dig Ric’s. We like a lot of stuff. Just buying and selling – go to Ebay or C’List – playing games(?) this probably isn’t the place for you.

OK, thanks. I’m done with the soapbox…. I feel better. Sorry to have bothered anyone.....

Which is your favorite?

I have 3 360s (2 6 strings and a 12 string - none are for sale though), and would love to get a 325C58 JG if I can get the money before they're all gone.

My eyes read that as "I Have 3360s (26 strings and a 12 string"

That'd be cool!

Would be a harpguitar (no, not Harpo guitar - he used a Ric?):

I've got a 26 string Rickenbacker guitar:

Is that really made by Rickenbacker? It looks like a Rick case

Yep, it's a model 768 Console Steel, made in 1960. Here's a catalog page about them from the RIC site:

Nice! I'm a big fan of the pedal steel - especially Eric Haywood's playing with Son Volt on their first 2 albums! Straightaways is one of my all-time favorites!

Sounds more like a train, than an instrument!

Very cool pedal steel, though - I hadn't thought of those

This one is a non-pedal version. Pedals were an option, and apparently not ordered too often as I've never seen one. I'd sure like to have a pedal version though...

What just happened? Someone fill me in?

We went from to 26-string...
