Probably came down to Guitar for the Dollar. Also their was a used 620 in a consignment shop down here, so I got to see and play it.

Musiciansfriend was a fine experience. I had no issues. It was easy to get someone on the phone, they sent me confirmation e-mails with a link right to UPS and so on. As someone already mentioned it was packed nice. Guitar in the case, case in a box, box in a box.

I'm really happy with the Midnight ...

Re: Musicians Friend Rickenbacker

Thanks again for all the feedback

Interesting about the 09 vs 11 NOS. I asked them specifically on the phone what year the guitar was. They didn't know. The opinion was "It's probably a 2011". I noticed today they are advertising Jetglo's ready for delivery 9-17-11. When I ordered my guitar ...

Musicians Friend Rickenbacker

I've been on the look out for a Rickenbacker 620. The best place I have found that has them in stock is musiciansfriend. I have no experience with them.
