Rickresource Rickenbacker Forum

I found an interesting picture of Paul McCartney tuning a 360/12V64. Does anyone have any info regarding this pic? When, etc...?

Nice work John!

Peter--would you or John know of any songs he has played the 12-string on ???

I did a search on http://www.google.com for "Rickenbacker". About 400 sites into it, I came across a Japanese site with this picture. I couldn't decipher any of the captions except for "All The Best". Maybe it was taking around the time of the "All The Best" release. (1987)

John, tell me the URL to the site, will you? I'll translate the text for you to read.

Here's what the pic is from:

It's the intro for the promotional video for McCartney's 'All the Best' VHS.

Good work T-Bone. But don't blink or you'll miss it.

Here's another pic from the video.

After looking at the above jpeg, doesn't that look like a "new style" body instead of the 360/12V64?

I think it is the 360/12V64 John. I confess, however, that it is difficult to identify a Rickenbacker moving at the speed of light.

I too think it's v64. The double binding on the body, the trapeze (instead of 'R'), and the old style 12-string nameplate, for starters.

BTW, Peter that's genius! I never thought of taking the integral of the quantized energy equation.
