staying "under the bottom" was NOT the intention of the Lightshow, for sure.

One of the Rics I've set a goal to want to play before I die is a 331LS. This video explains my reason.

Jake----I think you just need to fly to Chicago (CME) or visit Graham or something......then you can knock em all off the list on the same day.

Yes, but the chances I've had to see Graham were spent on my 1997 and 360/12V64collin wrote:Jake----I think you just need to fly to Chicago (CME) or visit Graham or something......then you can knock em all off the list on the same day.

Interesting! First time I've ever seen one of those in use. I always thought those were a silly gimmick, but the tone was actually quite good. Who'd have thought that a guitar with a plexiglass top and a bunch of lights inside could sound that good!

There was a time when Rickkenbacker had all their vintage guitars in a small building in front (as I recall) of their plant. You could just walk right in , pick any of them up, and play them. And I mean VINTAGE!! Light show Rics, many Rics with the gold pickguards, and TV style knobs - You NAME it!! - It was there. Those were the DAYS!!
