Peter I would say there may have been prototypes before 2001 but they were announced in that year. See below.

Thanks for the help Peter,

It is just because there is a 325C64 in Ebay that is from this year, but i think it is a 325V63.

I hope the link will work.

Based on the detailed photos in the eBay listing, I would agree that this guitar is a 325V63 model. I believe a 325C64 would have 2 truss rods, a roller bridge and a slightly different shaped nameplate/TRC.

FYI, I had a Mapleglo 325V59 from 2001 and I believe RIC was still producing the discontinued " V series" models to fill the existing backorders.

I am with Kevin and suspect the instrument in question is a 325V63.

I think i have convinced the seller as he just renamed his action for the correct type of guitar. But I dont think that he will be able to sell it at this price !
