Everything seems to work fine now!

And, thanks for the welcomes.

Cheers

Err... that'll be me "pwned" then (or whatever it is that they say to indicate utter humiliation these days). I was basing my sweeping generalisation on the few times I'd seen them live. I can't recall them using any 12 string at the gigs so maybe my memory is fugged with one too many ligh...

I've always assumed that there must be something in the water up there (Laguvalin?) with that whole West-Coast, power pop thing and maybe that's where the Rickenbacker connection comes in? I suppose when it boils down to it I can only think of early Primal Scream, Cosmic Rough Riders and (my persona...

Thanks, it's a 360V64 in fact. :oops: Sorry Wim. I said I didn't know anything about Rics. It's only in the last few months that I've taken notice of the difference between a 330 and a 360. Then I keep seeing all these amazing guitars that look like edge-bound 330s, but are in fact some kind of 360...

I'm one of Sir John John's biggest fans! ...not forgetting The Red Curtain, Lord Cornelius Plum and (this one always gets me) E.I.E.I Owen :D I love the Dukes stuff - possibly more than some of the XTC material (at least the stuff with all the Linn drums all over it). There's something about the fu...

It's just that there are far more mapleglo forrests. :D Lovely guitar Wim. I love the 330 body with the double binding and triangular inlays. Am I right in assuming that it is a "360 WB"? (Sorry, I'm fairly new to Rics.) Oddly enough, I've never really liked red sunbursts on guitars but f...

Many thanks Peter.
Just to be clear, It's not in any way important. I just thought I'd mention it.

I'm researching the purchase of, probably, a 330 or a 360 6-string and I've noticed that, here in the UK at least, Mapleglo guitars are often cheaper than Fireglo or Jetglo from the same retailer. I've looked at the US pricelist and there doesn't seem to be any mention of price differences between t...

Many thanks for your kind welcomes. The Avatar seems to have generated some interest - it's from the picture sleeve of the single "You're a Good Man Albert Brown" by the Dukes of Stratosfear (the name adopted by the wonderful XTC for their psychedelic side-project). I'd urge anyone who lik...

Thanks Scotty - didn't even see the worldwide forums bit
I'll keep my eyes peeled.

I'm new here so apologies if I'm doing something stupid. I've tried to add my location to my profile (Edit Profile in User Control Panel) but I keep getting the following error: The field “Real Name (First and Last) Required” must be completed. What's odd is that there is not a name field anywhere o...

Just thought I'd say hello to everyone from the North West of England. This seems like a fantastic place to find out about Rickenbacker guitars. I'm considering buying my first Ric (a 300 or 360) after many years owning "the usual suspects". It's not easy to even find any Rics to try out i...
