Show me your Rickenbackers!

Sign in to disble this ad
Hi! I'm sixteen and I really love the way Rickenbackers look, especially the 4003 and 4001 models! Anybody got ricks from way back? Unusual colours? And most importantly, any stories to tell? Thanks
Currently looking for a job to get an Azureglo Rickenbacker 4003... Seriously love the tones and that iconic look...

The Rick club can be hard to find unless you're subscribed.

Anyway, here are mine:



2010 4003; 1981 4080; 1976 4000; 1977 4001

I see you went for the Azureglo
Btw, is it "Azureglo"? Some places advertise it as midnight blue. I think I'm gonna get Azureglo, but I believe RIC have just released a ruby colour which sounds equally awesome

It's Midnight Blue (MID).
AzuerGlo (AZ) was discontinued years ago, and was a few shades lighter in colour.

Thanks!
Actually, compared to many, it's quite a modest collection.
It took me 25 years to get this far.
