Kissing Cousins

Postby dorkrockrecords » Thu Jun 23, 2011 11:21 pm

The collaboration between Roger Rossmeisl, Paul Barth and their young apprentice, and the guitar that that apprentice would go on to build almost a quarter century later: the Rickenbacker Combo 600 and the Mosrite Brass Rail.

Man - the knobs on that Ric look to be about the size of golf balls! No missing them.

Dumb question # 1... Does that piece of brass down the neck make a noticeable difference to the weight, sound or sustain of that guitar?
