You are right about Pam and I stand corrected. Sorry Pam, I'll play a 12-string song for you tonight

In my opinion, people do not notice differences because they simply don't see them (yet). As a biologist I have learned that observation (seeing, hearing etc.) is something you can learn and need to be trained to do. For instance, some people will just not perceive 'background noises' such as a part...

I am having the same job done on a 360 from 1973. My tech, who's doing the job, said he'll probably need to put in wooden plugs and drill new, smaller holes in order to fit the (smaller) Klusons. That's fine with me, as the guitar is JG anyway. IMO, the Grovers are simply too fat for the slim headst...

In my perception, 'a constant up or down motion with his right hand' just means that Buck creates these arpeggios with a single pick (his signature style) by hitting individual strings, using either an up- or downstroke (depending on whatever is more convenient), and often skipping one or two string...

Hi everybody, I have just obtained a 'somewhat' modified 360 from 1973 that I wish to change back to it's original specifications (as much as possible). This would include changing the tuners. As it is hard to find high-res headstock pictures from that era, does anybody know which type of tuners wer...

For instance, the latest ltd ed series, the CW ltd ed, is merely a 360C/V65 type guitar (albeit not extremely faithful to the 60's models) with a signed pickguard. Hardly. The CW's ultra thin tops are quite special, unlike any production guitar made previously. It was also the only 360 type guitar ...

Nonetheless, we, RIC fanatics, always appreciate the Ltd Ed's tremendously!

Best,
Kees

RIC is chopping away at the backlog. IIRC, RIC just doesn't do Sig models anymore, and there's nothing custom about either guitar, really, that would justify a Sig model if they did. A RIC poster of each player would be cool. :D Just get a trucker girl sticker and put it on a slightly used JG 360/1...

Hi guys, I guess this subject comes along like every 10 or 15 years, but do I recall correctly that Peter Buck has never been interested in a Ltd Ed named after him? Would be very nice though.. And it should include the (optional) bumper sticker. Johnny Marr deserves one too, in my opinion. Those gu...

Great looking piece of art. I'm in the market for a similar one (2010 or pre-1992). If you Americans stumble upon another one, please let me know (over here in Europe the Rick-market is @@#$$%%&!!).

Best wishes,

Play them both. The sound and feel of one will probably make you go, OH YEAH! While with the other you just say, oh yeah. Get the OH YEAH! one. Couldn't agree more. The one is simply is not better than the other. They are both wonderful guitars (and both types of PU are great too). They're just 'di...

Does the x brace impart any sonic difference? From an older thread: The X bracing, when combined with a thin top, certainly does have a nice acoustic sound quality but the later carved-in-place bracing guitars sure have a great electric guitar sound- volume, sustain, and presence- that you don't ge...

I've hear nothing from the seller , who seems to have gone to ground! I think I'll leave 365, and carry on the search for my first RIC. Thanks for the all the very helpful comments - this an excellent and friendly forum. Ed- might PM you for a bit of advice about buying in the UK I don't know wheth...
