Re: Any Rickenbacker Lovers Here?
Dumpsters and garbage cans... Several years ago, I happened to look down a back lane as I drove by, and saw what looked like a guitar sticking out of a garbage can. I investigated, and found a beautiful Yamaha 12 string acoustic. It was in need of minor repair, and a new set of strings... I also noted a few other items that would be the typical possessions of a male... I played and enjoyed that guitar for several years!

It never ceases to amaze me what some people will throw away. I was contacted by someone via my website who found a 1972 Celebrity-II in a trash can in New York. All it needed was a pickguard and a new nut.

It's hard to beat a 1997,1993/12, or a 330. Except on the bloody prices!!!!
