Rickenbacker 350V63 in Blueburst

Post by raider »

Does anyone here know when the 350V63
will be avaiable in the new BlueBurst
color? With in the next month I will be
listing on ebay my Gretsch 6128TBEE Duo
Jet so that I can buy a new Rickenbacker.
I also like FireGlow and Mapleglow so its
going to be one of those three colors.
I'm in no rush so I can take my time once
the Gretsch sells. For the players who play
a 350V63 what do you like about the guitar
and what don't you like about the guitar.
For me its always been my favorite guitar
to go with my Vox AC-30TBX.

I think people on the Forum have been ordering them already.... I can't wait to see photos of one myself--It is one of the models I might consider buying in Blueburst when I can scrape up enough cash!

What kind of Gretsch do you have for sale?
If you think all is going well, you've obviously overlooked something.

I've had a 350v63 Blueburst on order since late January from Mike Parks. No clue when they'll be in, I don't even know if I want it anymore.

If I definitley decide I don't want it, perhaps I can transfer the order to you?

My Gretsch is the EE Sig Series and the color is Black it has a fixed bridge into the body. This is a very easy guitar to play. I have always
liked Rickenbackers ever since 1964 when I saw
AHDN. John looked so different playing that guitar and all my friends at that time played
Fender. The Rick just had a great sound and the
look at that time to a 11 year old you get the
picture. If I could have only one guitar it would be a 350V63 Rick.

By EE you mean Elliot Easton? I thought they were all green/mahogany? (Although I understand there's a white one in the works...)

That right Paul the one I have is in Black
I have seen pictures of the white one. It does
look good. When they first made the Elliot Easton
you had two colors Green & Red then they added
Black and I bought one in Black. The EE is a
good guitar it just doesn't have that Rick Vibe.

I called Mike Parks today and took my hold off of the 350v63 Blueburst, shifted it to a 660 Blueburst! Image

So if you want it, Lou, i'd call him ASAP, for shoot him an email.

Hey John,
I would have to sell my Gretsch first that way
I would have money to put down on the new
350V63 in Blueburst. Then I would have to save
and with three jobs I know that I can do that.

Tony
My friend has to take pictures of my Gretsch
and then he will put it on Ebay. If I get what
I want for it then the rest of the money
will be easier to save. There was last week
a 350V63 on Ebay but I could not bid on it
without the money.
