Welcome to the Forum, Rob. :D
Since you are in Southern Calif, I recall that somebody had a 350 model posted on L.A. Craigs List about a week or two ago, you might want to try and find that seller and give it a test-drive.

At a crossroads in trying to get my first Rickenbacker

Hi, I’m a lurker here, an active reader but never post. I am a big Beatles and REM fan and I am looking to get a Rickenbacker to cover that territory.
