- (5/5)This is a fairly comprehensive reference on Rickenbacker's instruments. It has a great section on the early models (pre-1950) that covers the steels RIC made really well. It also covers the modern era (1950s - 1988). The book does contain several errors, mostly 'wrong' model identifications for the photos - this does not take away from the enjoyment of the book... There has been many models introduced post 1988 (when this book was written), and of course these are not covered. The book is big and thick, and most of the pages are B&W. Photos flow in the book with the text. There are a handful of full-color pages in the center of the book. This is one of the great references for the Rickenbacker lover, and perhaps the only one covering the steels.
