There used to be a guy named Keith Loewy who owned a Purpleburst 350. Done at the factory for Joe Perry? Its been a long time ago. Pretty sure it had check binding.

I've just read something about Mark Hudson in internet. I think none of them comes with these features from factory. I'll post more pics of mine the next week...

That is one sweet 350 Ric! I have one in MapleGlo (350) with check binding, and a 330 in Montezuma Brown with check binding that I had my local luthier do. Is your 350 binding right from the factory, or did you have someone do it for you?
Beautiful guitar either way, congrats on one nice axe!!! :wink:

Colin Keefe in UK is my luthier. I think the only factory Ric 350 with checkerboard purfling and white binding is the 350SH but I don't see anyone from factory with the headstock.

I know I'm spitting in the wind, but I would love to see Rickenbacker come out with a 350v63 with binding (front-back-preferably checkerboard).
The only double bound factory 350 ever made was the S.Hoffs, so come on Ric - lets do something cool and unique for a change!! :wink:

Paul I agree but looks like we shall have to settle for the after-market custom work for now.
Life, as with music, often requires one to let go of the melody and listen to the rhythm
