Ever heard of this faker in Austrailia?

I would have put it on the Rickenbacker forum, but I was kicked off.

All of their guitars are ghastly.

Shame too, because they are true Mosrite enthusiasts, even if all their copies are terrible.

That Ric copy is horrendous. What part of it exactly is derived from Mosrite? :?

Dig those inlays. Left-over model car windows?
Note that he says these will be available in VERY limited quantities. I'm guessing, "zero or fewer."

I've heard of Tym Guitars but I didn't know he was making fake Ricks.

Seems with the Mosrite, Rick and Maton Fyrbird copies the guy needs some 'originality' pills. :P
