I love Fender amps. Mine actually started out as a Fender Deluxe Reverb Reissue. I replaced the trannies with Mercury Mags and then I decided to point to point the amp back to 64/65 specs. Probably have as much money & time in it that I could have just bought a real 64/65 Deluxe - crazy but I lo...

Just wondering what amp you are using with your 360? Are you happy with it? I'm using a 1964 Deluxe Reverb clone and I really like it. It has a Celestion G12H in it and has a mid boost on the normal channel. I run both normal and vibrato channel at the same time with a Radial Switchbone JX-2. What a...

I have no idea myself but I did own a Ric from 1981 that was exceptional with toasters. The one that got away . I'm still kicking myself for letting that one go.
I just got a current 360 that is fabulous. If you get it please post and let us know what you think.

Thanks for the welcome - I remember my first RIC. I think it was an 81', her you go: http://www.pbase.com/esquire/image/65321807.jpg Loved that guitar but I let it go for a Martin that wasn't all that...but I did discover the 360 Jetglo as a result. He's my ol' 360 JG: http://www.pbase.com/esquire/i...

Yes, ric330 is back - been crazy busy with so many projects and thought I'd stop by and see what's up. I'm the guy who posted a couple how to's with photo's like toaster tops on high gains, modern to vintage tuner conversion, etc. a while ago. Love Rics still working on lots of guitars and but Just ...

If I recall right the reissue Kluson style tuners that RIC uses are actually made by Gotoh. They are very nice. I had them on 2007 360 and gigged with it alot and I must say I never had an issue due to tuners. The thing I find is that many believed tuner issues - originate at the nut slot or bridge...

Great eye scotty :shock: , That picture of a young George is right next to the DR stings sticker top middle of that last picture of the 330. I've got about 6 more guitars to finish up before I leave for Italy. BTW that little .0047 uf cap on the bridge pickup is a real cool subtle trick. Kind of sli...

Here you go: a Stereo 330 with vintege tuner conversion with a .0047uf Cap (push/pull) on the bridge pickup.

And a couple of the back:



I'll put the stereo jack in today and the .0047uf on the Push/pull blend knob along with the wiring modifications.
Getting close.

Hey Thomas, things are coming along nicely. Here's a couple shots of the front:

Thanks for the kind words everyone. I was really digging this new guitar. I'm absolutely in shock over the prices to Italy. I guess when you buy in advance you really do get a better break. This is going to be more like $6000 for the family just to get over there and back. Life can throw some real t...

We just got news from Italy that my Father in-law is not doing well at all. I need to fly Myself and family to Italy pronto. This is going to be expensive. Over $5000.00. I can't believe I just finished this project and I'm going to have to sell her. My family is certainly more important than my gui...

Wilberry is using a DA5 maybe he'll jump in with his take on it.
I've heard they are alot of fun for a small amp.
I've never tried one though.

After the party we throw for my Wife, Mother, and Grandmother over here today, the way I feel after the beer and wine I think I better leave her alone...the guitar that is

You know I think you're right, they didn't bind the end of the fretboard back then when there were less frets...
I can probably set this right by tomorrow morning after a few more beers..........
