Fullers is showing a Rickenbacker 8 string electric- first time I ever saw one...is there any history here?

It looks cool.

You can check out Martin's emando.com (http://emando.com) for some info and history on this cool little axe, as well as these threads (http://www.mandolincafe.com/forum/search.php?searchid=615623). For an audio sample, you should be able to find a vid of Reckless Kelly on youtube, performing "Wicked Twisted Road" -- which features Cody Braun soloing on this model mandolin.
