Rickresource Rickenbacker Forum

I caught a rerun Simpsons episode I'd seen several times before and noticed something I hadn't before.
It's the episode where Homer goes to 'Rock Camp' and there's alot famous guests that do the voices : Mick & Keef, Brian Setzer, Elvis Costello and Tom Petty. Well, at the end they show some out-takes of them in the voice studio and Tom Petty is shown doing his parts and strumming a 325V63. Thoght that was pretty cool.
And there's a animated segment where they're all sitting around the campfire and Petty has a crudely drawn 425ish guitar - with and angled Tele-type pickup and a bigsby!
Man, I love The Simpsons.

I love the part of that episode where Elvis Costello is trying to convince somebody to play bass & nobody wants to.
Then Homer says
"Out of my way nerdlinger & gimme the Strat!"

Funny stuff...

That episode was on last night. I saw Tom's jetglo Rickenbacker but couldn't determine the model.

Tom Petty also appears as "Lucky" on King of the Hill. Lucky says he never has to work again since he got his $20,000 settlement for slippin' in pee pee from Costcos. LOL
