Rickresource Rickenbacker Forum

I am a new member and I'd like to introduce myself. My name is Warren and I live in Cleveland. I have no Rickenbacker yet, but I hope to buy a 330 within a month, after I sell one of my guitars to finance the purchase. I play rhythm guitar in a Classic Rock band, The Karma Kings www.thekarmakings.com with Jeff Scott, whom most of you probably know. I have contracted Rickenbackeritis from Jeff, for which I understand there is no cure. I played his 330 and I'm hooked. I had played one before back in college and I liked it then as well. I have several acoustic guitars, all hand made, and an Epiphone Sheraton, which is no slouch, but the 330 is better balanced and lighter and a bit easier to play. Besides playing rhythm in the band, I play fingerstyle acoustic as well. So anyway, here I am and I'm sure you'll hear more from me after I get my guitar. Just a suggestion; you ought to have a dedicated "Introductions" section for new members. I belong to a forum for audiophiles and we have one. I find it a nice way to get to know new people and allow them to make their first posts if they don't quite know where to start.

Warren --- we're glad to hear that Karma Kings is finally getting a serious Rickenbacker enthusiast on board
And the state of Ohio has been under-represented with the meager quantity of postings on the Forum.... so you have your work cut out for you.

Glad to have you in the RRF --- and we assume with Jeff hosting the Photography section of the RRF that you will post pics of your new Ric !!!

Lets not go bashing the state of Ohio members here.

I think Rich was referring to one member, in particular, who doesn't post much on the forum.

I picked up on that Jeff. I was only kidding around.
