Toasters' Anonymous

Post by admin »

For those of us who are hooked on Toasters, let's see a display of them here. I find that some of the more interesting photos of my beloved Rickenbackers are those that are closeups showing only a tiny area of the instrument. Here is a toaster view of my 1993 Model 350 Liverpool, granted a few modifications.

So...coincidence or not, that the "toaster" PU is supported underneath by grommets that look like little "bagels"?Is there a conspiracy here?

That's what 12.6k to 7.4k looks like. Everyone posted such pretty Toaster pictures, I figured I'd post one torn apart.

Don't look now, but your unclothed toaster is about to be attacked by a vicious redheaded gerbil...

Have another beeyah.
