Saw this on the Premier guitar online magazine:

Pretty cool article, with input from JH and Chris Hillman. Nothing new or unusual, but cool article nonetheless.
Cheers,

Yep, the article was written by fellow forumite Bob Cianci.

AH, hence the abundant Rickenbacker questions! Well done Bob, some cool info in there.
Way to grind him on the Byrds reunion too!

I just read the interview this morning; good work, Bob! I am sure that Steve Lasko doesn't mind the Janglebox plug, either!

That is a great one, full of gear questions.
I wonder why he can't say how many Ricks he owns?

Thanks for all the replies. I did post a thread bout this in the Rickenbacker General section. I would assume Roger has a dozen or more Ricks. He and his wife live in a condo in Florida, so I don't know that he has the room to store a boatload of guitars. I purposely asked Roger about his use of other guitars. I have seen pictures of him using a Gretsch and a Tele. He played that Gretsch at Monterey Pop, on "Hey Joe," clips of which are up on YouTube.

Oh, we indeed loved the JB reference!
Bob's article is a terrific and insightful piece all around, and I greatly appreciate Roger's definitive statement regarding his JangleBoxes. It helps negate the irritating (though generally inconsequential) half-truths and falsehoods we occasionally see about our product. We have an accompanying full-page ad in that issue, too (pg. 38).

The McGuinns have a Florida condo, but they also have another residence that's been extensively renovated with solar panels and other energy-saving features. You can read about on their blog.

That is a really excellant article... focused on Rickenbackers, Byrds and Compressors !
Nice little side bars with Chris Hillman and John Hall too.
Everyone on this Fourm should enjoy reading it.
