David Gilmour purchased this experimental Rickenbacker Fireglo from Gruhn Guitars, Nashville, Tennessee, in June 1978. The accompanying letter from Kenny Howes of the Rickenbacker International Corporation explains the interesting history of this most unusual Rickenbacker 365 Fireglo guitar in a quote from Rickenbacker CEO John Hall: …this guitar is fairly historic, for the record. It was an experiment that I suggested back in the 60’s. It’s one of a kind – rare, rare, rare!
