There may still be another Jetglo 360 in my future but I couldn’t let it slide with how much I paid. I hated to send it back though. It just bothered me lol.

Fireglo on the way! Can’t wait to try it out. Never played the 330 before. Super excited. Share any differences you perceive acoustically between the 330 and 360. I have a theory on this and I'd love your opinion. Will do! It should be here Thursday or Friday. I think they did expedited shipping an...

That's the right move, Richard. Every time you held the 360, that blemish would haunt you. Let your dealer fight with RIC about returning it. It shouldn't have left the factory with such an obvious flaw. Good for you. Enjoy the 330 (and yes, the pickups are the same as the 360's). Thanks! May order...

Yeah it should be the high gains, but correct me if I’m wrong.

Also, if you guys want to follow me, I’m starting an Instagram feed all things guitar and alt country, etc. @pearloidbutton

You are a wise man!!!!

It pains me, but I am sending back the Jetglo 360. Just couldn’t get past it. The Fireglo 330 is now on hold for me.

On another note, you guys are great! Thanks for all the help and for welcoming me into the Ric community! I appreciate all of the information and experience you all have.

They got a Fireglo 330 in stock last night. May exchange for that one! Asking about the neck profile now.

They said they have some Jetglo 330s on order so I may send it back and wait for one of those. Cheaper too.

I did end up calling today and they said that they saw my email with the pictures and were getting ready to respond. They said it is just a knot and that there is no way they would send it out of the factory with anything that could cause structural, durability, play issues and that there was nothin...

I’m tempted to return it but I’d have to wait so long on another one. Ahhhh decisions!!!

I will probably return it. It bugs me lol. Unfortunately they won’t have anymore until 12-18 months (they’re estimate).

Haha I love it! My buddy said I should call it knottingham. I have 48 hours to decide. Trying not to be OCD about it and just get over it.

Yeah you are right. My only concern was if years down the road I needed to regret and had to remove lacquer that there would be this odd hole that could be felt on the fretboard or that it would weaken it somehow. The neck on this one is decidedly more “c” shaped than my Mapleglo and is perfect in m...

I just received my new 2021 Jetglo 360 and the neck feels great! Everything about it is perfect! Except, it looks like there was a knot in the fretboard and it almost seems like a hole filled in with lacquer.

What would you all do? Do I return it? Is this a defect?
