Interesting, seeing that my two others are perfect. I guess it isn't enough to bother you, what color is yours, Patrick? I will get a new one in a couple weeks, I'm sure it'll be better.

It's Burgundy from '79.

If you look at this picture you can see that it's clearly not visible in picture.

Looking closer I think I can see it... But it's very hard to.

My new 360 JG arrived yesterday, and, as expected, it looks and plays perfect. So far, I see ZERO visible blemishes, and the factory set-up is REALLY good, action is great, strings seem to be stretched out pretty good already, intonation is near perfect, stays in tune, WOW !! What an inspiring instrument. Now, I need to do something to my 330 MG to set it apart from the 360. Pyramid's ? Toasters ? HB's ? Any suggestions are welcome ...

Congrats a second time, Steve!! JG and MG are pretty different already, but toasters on the 330 would be my suggestion.

That's what I was thinking, Howard. I'll let it stew for awhile before I make my move. Life is grand with a garden of Rickenbackers at your fingertips !!

I'm proud to announce the long-awaited but safe arrival of "Little Ricky". Despite being 46 years old he still retains his youthful Model 425 looks and charm. Proud Dad is still dizzy from the costs of duties, taxes, quarantine and air mail delivery, however will definitely try for another. Thanks to all those who earlier tried to calm Dad down during delivery anxiety.
