See the description from previous auction (in UK) for this guitar, which used to have fhole and is a 1966 BTW: http://www.rickresource.com/register/vi ... p?id=33654
Guitar was sold to UK seller by Chicago Music Exchange 5 years ago.

Hi Ron,
thanks for your patient help, but the link to the auction must have been removed.
What really interests me is: Is this really vintage 1966, and what is the value after all these modifications ?
Thanks again

Re: Rick 325 seen on ebay
I think I would value this guitar as a converted 320. Here's a 320 1967 with fhole for comparison: http://www.rickresource.com/register/vi ... p?id=25577
This was listed on ebay for $3999 but didn't sell. It was acquired by seller at the HA auction for around $2900 in April 2013.
Another possible comparison, another 320 1967 with fhole currently on ebay asking $3900: http://www.ebay.com/itm/RICKENBACKER-19 ... 4615c174b6
This one may also have some changed parts. The TRC (and of course the case) don't look correct to me.

Edit: That 2nd 320 in my post above is actually a 1976, according to the serial no. supplied by seller.

Re: Rick 325 seen on ebay
Thank you >Ron,
I think it is not more than $2.000, or what is your opinion? I think it is very easy to make a fake jackplate with a wrong serial number on it. The Poticodes are also from the eighties. Who is going to put a Bigsby on this guitar, the "Lennonization" is incorrect!Is there any way to proof the originality of the pickups ?
Thanks

Re: Rick 325 seen on ebay
Well, I'm the seller of this guitar - I read with great interest the posts above. As for the pots Peter, as I told you, only one has a visible code - yes, 1980. The others are obscured by solder. They are of a different type and the numbers that are legible are in a different font.
Re: Rick 325 seen on ebay
PS. If anyone needs clarification of anything at this late stage in the auction, you should ask.
