There weren’t any lefties, so Paul won’t work. Maybe if you could get one in Tom Petty’s hands.

There’s a famous shot of George with a beautiful 360 Capri, taken for his Guitar Player Magazine interview that coincided with the release of Cloud 9. It helped push up the price of Capris, but Rickenbacker took no notice of it. (I couldn’t interest them in a reissue of the first 12 string when I had it, and that wouldn’t have required any major retooling…)

I don't normally like MG but that guitar is stunningly beautiful John.
