#14: The Beatles and Rickenbacker guitars!

Jimmy is on location in Santa Ana, California and visits the location of the legendary Rickenbacker guitar factory which was made very famous by their association with The Beatles in the 1960's. John Lennon first bought a Rickenbacker whilst in Hamburg pre fame - George Harrison played a 12 string Rickenbacker - most memorably on the opening chord of 'A Hard Days' Night in 1964', whilst Paul McCartney played his left handed Rickenbacker bass guitar extensively from late 1965 onwards.
