What's worth more 660 AFG or 360 Blue Burst

I have a 660 Amber FireGlo. I am not a fan of the skinny yet wider neck. I am really interested in the Blue Burst 360. Are they comparible in value?

360/12c63 neck thickness

Can anyone tell me if the neck on a 360/12c63 is thin like a 660
or thick like a chunky 360/6 neck?

Chip in 660 Paint

I just saw a chip down to the wood at the back off the headstock. Is there anything I should do? It's small and I know where it happened. My music room and only space is under the basement stairs. Partially due to the wife. I can blame her I guess. It's tight in my room with a computer desk and amps.

Playing Clean

I have been into playing my Twin reverb and VOX Ac30H clean latley. I have a few guitars including a Gibson LP jr. and a Rick 360. The best sound by far is from my 660/6 AFG. It sonds so nice through a old Boss CS-2 compressor. I like it with alot of reverb. The neck is ideal on the 660. Just my tho...

Re: Vox AC-30

I have a 71 Fender Twin reverb and a few Rickenbackers. I recently bought a Vox AC30CCH. It is the best thing I have bought in a long time. It sounds so good. I play it through a 2x12 Vintage 30 cab.

2006 360 Showing lines

When I look at my 2006 Jet Glo head stock I see the wood lines through the jet glo finish on the back and front. I cannot feel the lines. Is this normal? I do not see the lines in my AFG 660. The guitar lives in it's case and has never been exposed to extreme humidity and or dryness.

Compression

I play a Rick 660/6 and 360/6 through a 71 Twin reverb and a new Vox Ac30CCH. I have an old Boss CS2 compression pedal. Can someone please explain what the compression pedal does for thier Ricks? Do you rely on the pedal? I understand that the compression pedal evans out the sounds. I also understan...

Re: Johnny Marr talks technique

Jeffrey, That was very kind. Thank you. I am not copying Marr but I have played guitar for a long time (25 years). I have the Rickenbackers and the Twin. I bought my 71 Twin in 1990 after seeing the guitar player from Pylon (he just passed away) play live in Philadelphia. It helped that Peter Buck p...

Re: Johnny Marr talks technique

Am I the only one who gets frustrated that I cannot play the way he does? It's depressing for me.
