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.
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".
Just bad eyesight. It happens to you later.

Sometimes after work I certainly feel 68......does that count?
