I know that a lot of us have more than just Rickenbackers in our collections and vaults, so I want to have an area during RIO!!! where we can bring and display our prized non-Ricks. Please let me know what you have that you would like us to drool over; this being a Rick related show I ask that these instruments be only those that are/were made in America (USA) just like Rickenbackers are.
I have something I recently got that will be making an appearance, for those who like to drool over acoustic guitars!

I had a Jazzmaster at MARF, but will most likely be all-Rickenbacker this time around.

Jeff, if you don't mind, I request that it be open to anything. Not only because my Wal was made in England but because I see no reason to exclude anything. Will only "Americans" be allowed to attend next? No I say....rise up immigrants! (sorry, I got carried away a bit there).
Anyway......it could be a good source for those that primarily play/collect Rics to see what else works for fellow Ric players no matter what the make or nationality. Just my opinion.....

Good point Brian. Okay, all nationalities are in.
Can't exclude that lovely Wal of yours, for sure.

Well, I don't want to change your "vision" just because my Wal isn't of US of A heritage......but even if you disagreed I was bringing it anyway!

That's pretty bizzare, as Fender types go.
Bring it, looks interesting for sure.

It's a parts bass. I bought off of Ebay from this guy.

I seriously think it needs two Toasters though.
Bring some cash as it may be for sale.....
