Worried about belt buckle scratching your Rick?

This'll put scratches in your belt buckle! Says it was a factory job. Hmm. Whose factory? Underneath is an August 72 Jetglo that has served its owner well.

Isn't it amazing how just about every odd, weird modification done to these things has been done by the "rickenbacker factory"???

I have NO idea what to do with those skinny stringed things... I'm just a bass player...

That is KILLER. The whole instrument just screams "testosterone-over-the-top-kick-a**es-and-take-names-in-and-out-burger-gift-certificate" to me.

I am gonna WATCH this one.

And in less than a day, it has 11 bids and up to $1250. Guess my taste is all in my mouth.
