Geoff, there are a couple. The Complete History of Rickenbacker and The Rickenbacker Book. The first can be had off Amazon for a better price than Ebay and probably the same can be said for the second book. Both are pretty good. | ||

Howard, don't know about overseas shipping, but right now Amazon has The History of Rickenbacker, new, for 23US, which is like 30 to you before shipping. | ||

Thanks, Stan. I've toyed with that idea but was trying to get one locally. Maybe it's time to bite the bullet! | ||

Don't over look used at Amazon. The dealers there sometimes list overstocks they buy from publishers. I have gotton new from them at a third of the cost. Also overstock.com has some good deals from time to time. I picked up the latest edition of the Tube Amp Book from them at half price. | ||

The Rittor book is great if you can read Japanese! | ||

Ah so! Lickenbackel! (no offence meant to our Japanese members). In Oz it would be 'Rick'nbacka'!! |
