New Forum, I guess I am the only one!

So far, looks like I am the first to post to the RR section. I was saddened to see the old forum get deleted, at least the site is still alive and kicking. I have two RR8s...one is with me in France and the other, which I won in a raffle in 1992 is in California at a friend's house. I don't play my RR8 too much nowadays as my main no1 guitar is a 1974-75 Gibson Byrdland which I do most of my writing and recording with.

If interested, some of my playing can be heard on my soundcloud:

for these old recordings, I used both of my Heartfields as my no1s.

be safe out there!

The RR models are some of the most fun guitars to play! Great quality and sound, and very lightweight and ergonomic.

Cleaning out my yahoo mail today...brought me back over here

so quiet, in fact, I am the only one posting about RRs!

I can be found mostly at The Gear Page forum in The Rack Space subforum

I'm going to be visiting again. How are you ? I have many RRs including some prototypes you can see on this site. They are great guitars.

Hello out there Heartfield enthusiasts ! These are great guitars and unbeknownst to most of the guitar world. More for us !! Lol !!

Unfortunately, this site has not exactly kept auction prices down. Heartfield-related guitars (especially DRs and Elans) seem to be fetching more and more. It's what the quality deserves, but it does not exactly make Heartfield guitars underdogs anymore, nor best kept secrets!

wow no posts since 2019?

I've been playing my main RR8 a fair bit recently.

I'm looking into a power supply for the active pickup

Anyone know the pinout on the RR-8/9 active pickup?

I've been looking at the EMG ES-918...but I don't know if that unit is compatible with the RR8/9...
anyone know who made the RR8/9 pickup?

Or any suggestions for similar unit as an ES-918?

People have posted since 2019, but...

a) The forum is not a high-frequency affair
b) this particular sub-forum is one of the least used
