Thanks Peter and Mr. Hall.
I'd gladly pay in advance for any Rick forum t-shirts to who ever makes them.
Paul W, yeah I know about the bumper stickers that are available, I also still have the larger black and gold ones that were made back in the '80's.

I think the instruments on the shirts should reflect the notion of what Rickenbacker represents to the whole world and not eack of our own's ideals. I vote for George Harrison's 360/12 and a mid '60s 4001s, as these truly represent the classic Rickenbacker.

See I'm puny!
I really need a medium or a small.
I was thinking we should get the R tailpiece for one of the designs, it's classy, timeless, and everyone likes it.
If I wasn't so busy right now I'd whip up something... Oh well, maybe tonight.

Ahhhh Jeff.....the voice of reason....with a VERY good idea....
I'll go with the flow.....whatever you guys decide is ok with me.....just as long as they are "quality" material that won't shrink too much...
Paul, 6'7" / 275(I'm working on lowering the weight, can't do anything about the height).....as you can see, these 4005's look a bit small on me....lol!! ...and you can probably see from my hands that I'll never be able to play a 12 string too well....

Jeez, Chris, who built the scale model 4005s? They're real nice...

lol!! Thanks, Paul...they are truly special!!
Ok, these ARE full-scale, genuine RIC 4005's!! They are not Revell 1/6th scale models.....just ignore the big ugly thing in the middle with the 5-head and focus on the RICs....they are genuine!!

I noticed you were resting those guitars on your footies, and not letting them touch the concrete -thereby avoiding the wrath of RIC lovers all over the world...

If I know Paul - which I don't, personally...
I'd say he's down in his underground lab / bunker conferring with the voices in his head over a design appropriate for such a good look'n bunch 'o' Ric lovers... Paul, make sure the colors match 'ma eyes - bloodshot!!
BTW, I've gotta go down to Music City next week - got any drive'n tips you'd care to share???
