Re: 360v64 vs. 360c63

The 360 c 63 also has the aged colored inlays, and a 3 piece top, and the more exact shading on the fireglow finish to the originals made in 1963.

Re: 360/12c63

Paul I can"t speak for the early 360 12 c 63 models, but I know that rick went back to original specs on these, so that I would assume that the early models also have the 3.5k bass pickup and the 7.5k bridge pickup. Look under the bass pickup you will not see any extended poles. The treble pickup ...

Re: Ok, Here it is!

Jerry can you give me some details as to why you prefer your 660 neck over any 360 12 c 63 neck. I just landed a 360 12 c 63 and I must admit the neck feels wider with a flat spot running down the back of the neck like a 1960s les paul. While very comfortable, very different feel then a std rick ...

Re: Need recommendations - Gretsch vs. Strat

Tom you should look into warmouth if you want to build your own. They make strat bodies and necks, but be careful they make several different neck cuts so you have to chose the right one that fits your hand best. Body high end is six hundred dollars with finish ready to wire. Neck high end is four ...

Re: Thinking of Modifying Your Gretsch 5120

Greg in my case my guitar came with dime size pots 1992 6120 and a cheap selector switch. Note that the picture shows 3 pots on the lower area and 1 on the cutaway, 2 switches on top set up like a bryan setzer, where the pickup switch is closer to you, and the tone switch is further away. Now if you ...

Re: RE 366 convertable WBBS

Ron you are lucky to own the three of them, they are not common rickenbackers, in the OS body style, and then to have the convertable option on top of that, well need I say more. Beautiful guitars. :D :D

Re: RE 366 convertable WBBS

Take a good look at these guitars guys, because in order to get these back in 1968 you had to ask for the white binding both sides, and then you got the OS body style. And then add the convertable option. Very cool. :D
