BTW: I think that's a 4000.Shout out to a couple of old friends' band "Stampede."
I forgot about this…Graham Gouldman, of 10cc…
But before that, he wrote a notable chunk of the British Invasion songbook….
“Between 1965 and 1967 alone, he wrote "For Your Love", "Heart Full of Soul" and "Evil Hearted You" for the Yardbirds, "Look Through Any Window" (with Charles Silverman) and "Bus Stop" for the Hollies, "Listen People", "No Milk Today" and "East West" for Herman's Hermits, "Pamela, Pamela" and "The Impossible Years" for Wayne Fontana, "Behind the Door" for St. Louis Union (later covered by Cher), "Tallyman" for Jeff Beck and "Going Home", which was a 1967 Australian hit for Normie Rowe.”

Greg Lake also used a modified Rickenbacker 4001 Jetglo on the Trilogy and Brain Salad Surgery tours in 1972 and 1973. But he RARELY used the Rickenbacker on any ELP recordings!
Tom Petty owned a few Rickenbacker instruments and I swear I saw him playing a Ric bass in a video somewhere, I think he was backing Johnny Cash on Johnny's cover project he did late in life.
