Postwar Rickenbacher frypan A-22

Steven Cummings · From: Texas

My dad purchased this guitar and an old Rickenbacher tube amp for me in the early 60's.

Please share if you have any available information regarding this model. i've had a hard time finding much about them, especially the old amp.

I've only been able to find one picture of a guitar similar to this in a 1950's rickenbacker catalogue, only it only had one control knob. Not looking to sell it as there's too much sentimental value plus I really enjoy playing it.

Steven, a similar photo, but not exactly like yours, is in The History of Rickenbacker Guitars,
by Richard R. Smith, Copyright 1987, and published by CENTERSTREAM publishing.

Hi Steve,

on my last Hawaii visit Paul Kim showed
me a very similar guitar, a Frypan with a wooden fretboard.
Quite unusual, I thought that was custom made.
The guitar sounded fantastic.
