NBD! Rickenbacker 4001v63 MapleGlo (Pic heavy)

Yes, but he also had a 21-fret 4001 (full trim) Mapleglo, so look for the full-width triangle position markers. He has had several Ricks; not sure about the Fireglo 4001 in one of those videos - it could have belonged to someone else. Also look for the "potato-head" eight-string, one of two experimentals Rick produced (the other for John Entwistle).
Exactly. Mostly I'm just guessing. Trust the guy that wrote the book ;) (@PaulBoyer)
