I've owned a 350v63 for about 2 years now. I love it. I wouldn't give this guitar up for anything.

I agree 100%. My Duo Jet has a Bigsby and it does look cool. I don't use it all that much.

Peter, the sound of that 350 through those amps is great. I also own a 370/12 and use the RIC O Sound to both amps on the left and right side of the stage. I have had more people come up to me during a break or after the gig to tell how good that 12 string sounds.

I use a Vox AD120VT and a Fender Twin Reverb.

I've purchased 4 guitars from Gary @NCM. He is a good guy. Tell him Steve sent you.
On one of my RIC370/12's, he drove it to a Luthier for me, picked it up when it was ready and then shipped it to me. You can trust him. I have not seen anyone beat his prices.

Joey, do you live in Palm Beach County? I live in Wellington.

Steve, it was a modification that I felt would help the string spacing on a somewhat narrow neck.
For my style and hand size, it was hard for me to play chords on the factory setup. This modification makes it play right for me. There are many people who feel the stock nut and 6 string saddle are ...

I own a new 370/12. I had the nut and bridge changed. I could have gone with the trapeze tail also, but did not. I think the R looks cool. This guitar plays and sounds great

Well I started this post back on November 12th.
Today my 370/12 FG was delivered. What a dream.
I had the nut and a 12 saddle bridge put on.
The spacing is perfect. I thank you all for your comments and to Gary at North Coast Music and Jim at Jim's Guitar Repair.

O.K. what do you guys think of this? Take the wires off the R5 pot and connect them together.
Take the hot wire off the output jack and and now put the R5 pot in series with the output. I would keep the R1 Bass/Volume and the R2 Treble/Volume fully open and use R5 as a volume pot.
Wouldn't that ...

Peter, is there a place I can find a wiring schematic of this guitar.

I am a very proud owner of a RIC 350v63. The only thing that drives me crazy is the combination volume/tone and volume/bass pots.
I use two guitars when I play. My strat has a seperate volume and I set my amp's volume once and I am done.
Is there a way to wire my RIC so I can control the volume ...

Richard, I am a proud owner of a 350v63. I chose the Jetglo. That vision of Lennon on the Ed Sullivan show is in-grained in my brain forever.
Besides that, it plays and sounds great. I have owned some guitars with the vibrato's and there are pro's and cons. My 57 Gretsch with the Bigsby is no ...

WOULD SOMEONE TELL ME WHERE I CAN GET A GOLD PICK GUARD FOR A 350V63 AND ABOUT HOW MUCH?
THANKS.

Mark, thank you for your comments. If I were to get this 370/12 would you be able to make the nut and the bridge modifications for me?
I would need to know the cost and time it would take and when you could get to it. Is there a way for us to talk live about this? Thanks again for your help. Steve
