Hey - do any of you guys (or girls) own a Rickenbacker?

I only have acoustics: Yamaha, Fender, and a Seagull.

Yes, a Rick 370-12 in FireGlo

Beautiful instrument, but I'm not too keen on the 3 pickups,
the rear combines with the middle and sounds too dense.

No, I don’t, but I would sure like to add one to my collection. I’ve got a Gibson Les Paul Classic, a Fender Strat and a Fender Jazzmaster Geddy Lee bass in electric. Most of my collection is like you, accoustic. Now if I could only become good enough to be worthy of playing such fine instruments!

I don’t. I have a friend who has an old Rickenbacker bass, sounds awesome.

I have a 1975 Rickenbacker 4001 bass guitar.
It’s a blonde.
I use to have a black 1968 4001 also, but I sold it to a music store out in California a couple of years ago.
