..thanks guys..having a hard time syncing my phone to my PC for some stupid reason (maybe cos its a Samsung?)

Anyway..thanks for your input all, shall see how thing's go..

Good advice.. But it's a distance sale, I cant easily get to the guitar to try it, unless the seller is willing to deliver, that'd be the first time I see it..
There's no obvious cracks from what I can see, and he seems to be genuine.. But, have been bitten before, so hence I'm asking advice...

I don't mind it not having a case tbh.
The neck is worn on usual places, apparently frets are in good nick. Am told it's a good player.
Two pots have been replaced, and it's had a nitro respray..
Does £750 sound OK? I haven't seen it in on the flesh yet..

No, not as far as I'm aware? Just the guitar.

Apparently it's Jan 1981 if that helps? I'll try and post pics later.. I suspect they've been replaced over the years..
I wanted a worn looking 330 and it looks like one, wants £750 for it, is that reasonable for a resprayed non original tuner 330 jetglow do you think?
Thanks.

I'll try and post pics later, can't seem to on my mobile, thanks for your assistance tho

Great, so they are possibly period correct? It's not a deal breaker, as I'm used to vintage tuners as I have them on my '52 reissue Telecaster . Just wondered if Rics ever did have them really..

Thanks for the reply.. From what I can make out.. They appear to be Grover Deluxe , not clear in the pics I've seen tho.
It's been resprayed as well, so maybe there is something under the hood, so to speak?..

I'm looking to by an '81 330..

It is fitted with Fender type vintage split tuners, the type with a split in that you push the string down, and then wind on.

Would these be original for 1981? I'm told by the guy selling they were?

He's reputable, but, just want to sure.. It's my first Ric ...
