As CB Says ..but note the bottom comment::
Please remember as far as I'm aware this is a COPY and not an original Rickenbacker.

the only info i managed to find on the frypan is that RKR were british based makers? as for it being a copy, im not bothered as long as its not too expensive and it sounds as good as it looks

fingers crossed chaps

I havent been on here for a bit cos I've been flat out with other stuff, so I completely missed all this excitement. You bought it then? Has it arrived? Is it OK? What does it sound like? etc etc

Hi Ruby, yep i bought it

it is a stunning looking guitar very very well made and sounds a treat... theres a few things that need sorting out though 1] the action is a wee bit too close[not a lot i can do about that] 2]the tone switch doesnt seem to work 3] the volume knob is right where i would position my hand and i always seem to turn the vol down everytime i play, so will have to sort out some kinda stick on guard or summat, when i can get the time ill whack up some piccies
