Mac: Please don't forget to register and upload these photos to the Rickenbacker Register. This opportunity should not be missed.
Life, as with music, often requires one to let go of the melody and listen to the rhythm

OK. I must be missing something. What's the difference between a 315 upper guard and a 325 upper guard?

Bob, it'd be the similar to 1997/1998 or 330/340 I imagine. The 3 pickup models have a section missing to allow for the extra pickup.

Yes, in most cases. But 310/315s have the same upper guard as a 325, with no center "landing" in between the pickups. So a 325 guard should be identical.

Theoretically, yes. But you wanna know how many router patterns I have marked "325 UPPER"? Not to mention the variations in screw hole locations...

Awesome looking 315. The FG is superb.

Just a note on Rumbleseat...I visited their Ithaca store once and they seemed to be really nice and professional. They had a pair of 60's Rick's, which were both very reasonably priced in the $2500.00 range. That was a year ago -- I bet they would fetch double today.

Thanks RutleDirk...

I appreciate your nice comments.

Mac

PS... I've heard you play, and I must say, you are quite AMAZING (both on Bass & Guitar)...
