I saw a great picture book over the weekend at the Phila. show that was only on Rickenbacker 12-strings, and very similar to the hard to find Japanese book done a few years ago on all models; The new book has fantastic pics and the text is in Japanese..A few things of interest:

Matt Preble's Byrd 370/12

John Hall with a prototype 380/12'Laguna'(COOL)

A fold-out of the Suzi Arden 1963 360/12 next to a 360/12V64, and how one compares to the other...

Who else has seen this book??? I am working on getting a copy or two---is any body selling them here in the U.S.???

Perhaps Tuck Hersey can assist us in tracking down this publication. Tuck?

Peter, I e-mailed Tuck over the weekend; in his reply I think he was referring the older, more comprehensive book that's now out of print. Hopefully, he'll still chime in--I haven't tried him back yet to clarify things.....
