Did John ever use his Rose-Morris Ricky 325 Fireglo that was given to him in 1965?
Does any know what happened to it?

His "Miami" model 325, his second one, had a damaged headstock and when it was sent in for repairs he used the Rose Morris model as a stand in. In the studio, his Morris model served as a back up. I think it still survives.
"Here he is, come to pay homage to the Rickenbacker display!" (Said to me by owner Bruce at the "Great House of Guitars" in Rochester, NY)

Tom;
The answer to your question is Yes! John did indeed your the 325S Fire-glo Rose-Morris model. The picture you have probably seen (like most of us) with John holding a cigarette and his harmonica holder is the 325S.
Also if you watch The Anthology series Vol. 4 (I believe) there are vidio clips of John using the 325S on stage.
What happened to it? Who knows...
