1983 Electro ES-16, made by Rickenbacker.

This guitar is a bit of a mystery. Technically it's a "reissue", as the originals were made in very limited quantities between 1964 and ~1969, and then another small run appears in 1983 only (or at least I can't find any from 1982 or 1984, anyway…). The hearsay is that Ric came across NOS parts for these in '83 and did a short run to blow them out, but that is 100% unverified. If anyone knows why ES-16s went out of production for 14 or 15 years and then popped up again for a short time in '83, please let me know!
