Post subject:  Seems like something is missing

I was borwsing the various galleries and noticed a few glaring absences under artists and guitar models.

Are there issues that prevent use of the images of certain British Invasion group(s) and a certain American group that was known for it's "jangly" sound? I don't know if I am not supposed to mention them or have to pay someone.

Also where in the gallery is the LightShow model Ric?

Just wondering (and trying to get rid of that "groupie" heading under my avatar...)

What you see currently in the archives is the tip of the iceberg. Many are being held back for use by publications during our 75th anniversary celebration next year but the gallery itself will always be rotating, i.e. always being updated.

However, we've noticed that many photos have been illegally appropriated and posted on other sites just within this week. This may have a major impact on what we choose to share here in the future.

Just another reason to love Rickenbacker, they have always been so Avant-Garde as to what they share and what they do not.

Man, you gotta love this place and this company!

Where else in the world can you post a comment and have the CEO respond in the manner in which Mr. Hall does so eloquently?

I am very glad to be associated with Rickenbacker. This place does me proud (as any Texan would say!)

I don't think we have a problem with John William's "artwork", given the modifications. I'm referring to the misappropriation of images by posting without permission, credit, and copyright notice. Anyway, this is getting sorted out now.

"We're gearing up for our 75th anniversary next year...."

Anything 'special' in the offing for the 75th anniversary? Maybe a "75th anniversary" model 4001?

Well, if thats the case, I'd now like to be known as "the artist formerly known as John Williams". Anybody got a problem with that? I'm off to find a really cool icon to symbolize it......:-)
