I have always assumed the workers at Rickenbacker signed their work for QC purposes.

Jeff I am not sure but if you need help putting that back together send it to me and I'll get it running and try it out for you. No charge?
Just someting about that checker board that does something to me.

Maybe Ted can make you a paperweight with checker binding!
Hey, that could be a forum membership paperweight, what do you think Ted?

Do I get the second one, as you would obviously get the first?
Gee, should I get mine in JG? How about BG? It is going to be hard to decide on a finish!

Checkerboard binding is a precious commodity but if I can find a reliable supply this could be done. Maybe I could take a contour from part of a bass, say the lower horn. Just enough to get the point across but hopefully not enough to rouse the ire of ricklegal@. Bind them and put some kind of finish down. If the shape is a trademark issue then some other non infringing shape would have to do. I would be willing to try.

Too bad it can't be a headstock.
