Rickenbacker Advertisement???

This one really makes me want to buy another Ric.
I wonder when Mr. Hall decided to advertise in Playboy?

That wasn't an advertisement, it was a centerfold of the late Star Stowe. At the time (about 1975) she was a "close personal friend" of Gene Simmons and I believe she did a photo shoot with KISS. That may explain posing with a guitar. Unfortunately, she was murdered about 5 years ago.

It appears they've got it plugged into the Ric-O-Sound jack. I wonder what kind of amps... oh never mind, I bet that's not even a stereo cable.

Star appears in the "Basses and their Pets" section of the Bunnybass site. See http://bunnybass.com/basspets/starstowe.html to find out her turnons and turnoffs. There's a link there to another page with yet another link so you can get an unimpeded look at her, um, gear.
