Are you going to buy a 620 or a 650 for your next milestone? Perhaps there's method to your madness.

I'll have to tell my wife I need to order a new 4003 for when I achieve that benchmark. Good thinking!!! I like it. LOL

Nice guitars BTW

Nice pair, RCB.

I've got a 360 on order - perhaps its arrival will coincide with my 3600th post. I'd better start lifting the rate..... Image

It's taken me three and half years to reach 360 posts. At this rate, I don't want to think about how old I'll be when I reach 4003 posts. Image

Um, does Rickenbacker make a 5414?

Those are nice guitars. I also have a fireglo 360. I was thinking of having humbuckers installed in my 360. How do they compare to the high gains in this model?

The best way that I can describe the HBs is that they have a little less jangle than the toaster or hi-gains and a little more bluesy/jazzy tone. They are super quite.
