In 2006, Parfitt released his invention—the “guitar facelift,” which gives removable, reusable vinyl addresses for guitars.” Parfitt’s most well-known guitar is a 1965 white Fender Telecaster, though between both him and Rossi, Position Quo uses 18 guitars while from the street. He also offers the backing of Fender for Telecaster and Stratocaster Facelifts. While in senior high school, he fulfilled fellow bandmate and business lead singer Francis Rossi, and the duo became a member of what would end up being the 1st lineup of Position Quo in 1967. Parfitt has written a few of Status Quo’s most remarkable tracks including ‘”Whatever You Want”, “Backwater” “Living on an Island”‘ and “Rainfall.” Once referred to as “The Wild Aged Man of Stone,” Parfitt experienced a quadruple center bypass in 1997, and today dubs himself even more of a “Mild Man of Rock. Rick Parfitt was most widely known to be the singer and guitarist of the British rock-band Position Quo.Rick Parfitt net well worth: Rick Parfitt was
