Thanks again for the warm welcome, everyone. This is a good place to be, I can tell already.

SN is WL 16??

Post more pics if you can! We never get tired of looking at them! :D :D

Yes, my serial number is WL 1670.

I will post more pictures soon, I promise!

My wife's not so sure about THAT happening any time soon. I have two Martin acoustics and an Ibanez Artcore electric. The new Rickenbacker surely outclasses the Ibanez, but behind my Martin D-35 is how I perform. I hope to get an electric band going someday so that I can play out with my Rickenbacker. Maybe I will sit-in with one of my friend's bands one of these days and give the Ric a real workout.

Thanks, Rich. It's so awesome to have such a unique Rickenbacker! So, once I put mine in, you and I have the only JG 370WBs in the Rickenbacker register? That's wicked! I like the mods you did to yours, fersher! I think I am going to leave mine stock for a while. I just love her so much the way she is, I wouldn't dream of changing anything right now. Well, except for giving her a vigorous cleaning!

I'm sure there are a few JetGlo Double Bounds around, but probably a lot of them are 12-strings like V64s or C63s, etc.
Keeping a beautiful 80s Ric "stock" is real cool, too. :)

A somewhat belated welcome, Sean! :)
