Rickenbacker Boomers v. The Rest

Post by Scastles »

It seems this forum is a near equal divide of Rickenbacker 'boomers' (I hate the phrase) and those of latter birth years. However, how many belong to what? I tend to think there is a definite edge to those born after 1964, which IMHO, is a good thing. It quells the notion only folks of the '60's have any use for a Rickenbacker. Where do you fall?
Select early, select often.
If you were born before 1946, we'll get back to you. :D No discrimination intended. Hopefully, none taken.

Right there with you, Aitch. Same year, and a couple of months away from moving it up another notch.

At first glance, Brian, I thought to myself, "he's 68". :D Just bad eyesight. It happens to you later.
