Better than I thought ... I pretty much like the hi-gain, modern-era guitars, in different finishes ... not much diversity !
No judgement! Rickenbacker passion is Rickenbacker passion! :D

Re: Calling all TRUE Rickenbacker GEEKS! Lets play a game!

Rules 2 and 3 are contradictory. I'm supposed to put together a collection that says what "Rickenbacker is all about," but without any basses? I considered including basses as part of this game, but as I began to write down all their unique features, I realized doing so would pretty much ...

Calling all TRUE Rickenbacker GEEKS! Lets play a game!

Calling all TRUE Rickenbacker GEEKS! Lets play a game! 1.) Lets say you can only collect 5 Rickenbacker electric guitars. 2.) With those 5 Rics, your goal is to build a collection that best tells the story of what Rickenbacker is all about, by incorporating as many different features and options as ...

Re: Why The Rose Morris F-Hole?

California Vintage in Van Nuys has (or had) a 1964 360 New Style with a BOUND F Hole. Maybe a Rose Morris prototype? Maybe RM did not like the rounded body either. And I love how above he inserts himself into his own propaganda - “Legendary Band, Legendery Supplier, Legendery Brand”. Come er,kids, l...

Re: Tell me about your first Rickenbacker...

First Ric I ever owned was a ’67 360/12. Bought it at the House of Guitars during a family visit to Rochester, NY, in the summer of ’88. Paid $1,000.00 for it, which was all the money in the world for 16yo me then. But I had been dreaming of owning a Rickenbacker since a.) I discovered the Beatles, ...

Re: Brand New 325C64 Issues

Glad you found an instrument you are happy with! A 620 is much more modern guitar... based on your stated expectations, it sounds this is more suited to your needs.
