Re: Serial number question

The guitar is a FG 360 V64/12. Interesting, I wonder why Rickenbacker wouldn't just use the original jack plate even when doing a refinish?

Serial number question

When I type this serial number, XX 2000, into the RIC decoder from a guitar I am considering it come back with: "your amplifier was made in 1984".

Any ideas?

1967 vintage toaster rewind

I have a vintage bridge toaster out of my 1967 330/12 that is dead and needs a rewind.

Lollar does not do rewinds any more.

Waiting for response from Seymour Duncan.

Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Re: Anyone Hear From Paul Lately?

Last week I called and left a message, sent a text and have sent a PM through the forum.

So far no response.

It could be the holidays I guess.

Neck profile difference between modern era 330 model years?

Anyone know if there would be a neck profile difference between a 1987 330 and one made on 2006 (I understand that the 60's 330's were very slim)? My 2006 330 has a chunky neck that I like and I seem to remember reading here that earlier 330's were a slimmer neck until around 2000? I sure like the w...

It looks like a green version of MIB.

I hate to say it....I think I like it. :shock:

What color is this?

While trolling on gbase I found this 360/6 V64 in green. Was this a COY?
