I'm not sure if this is the right forum for this, but does anybody know which Beatle's studio album marks the McCartney change from Hofner to Rickenbacker?
I just want to know.
Peace

So, I want to see if the Rickenbacker corresponds with that change.

Maybe in the future I'll just ask you directly, you seem to have research materials on everything I want to know.
Do you know who killed Kennedy?
(just kidding)
