Got my first rick (at last ! )

Post by dimitris »

Hello from Greece! I got my first Rickenbacker guitar (a brand new 330/6 Fireglo). Now I understand what this forum is all about!

The most comfortable guitar I've ever played! And that sound...

The finish looks a little pinky (center of the body) but the overall looks of the guitar is very attractive.

The best guitar I own...

Cheers
Dimitris

Congrats Dimitris. A fireglo 330 is a hard gtr to beat...the very best IMO. You'll soon have Ric fever & want a 12 string & then a vintage series & then a ......you get the picture.Image
'Rickenbacker'...what a name! After all these years, it still thrills me.

Congrats, Dimitris! (from a Russian who still hopes to "keep company" to guys&gals here... well, maybe next summer...)
Any pictures of your new baby? 8-)

Nice going, Dimitris! Now that you got your new baby, it's time to rock n' roll! (What's going to be the first Beatle song you play on your Rick?)

Thanks guys!

Noel, dolmadakia? Good choice ;)

Skipson, I think "It's been a hard day's night" will be appropriate; the greek custom house gave me a hard time before giving me the guitar.. :D

Sheena, I'll try to upload a pic of the ric, as soon as possible!

Well done Dimitris,

welcome to the forum. You will never regret your choice of a fine instrument. Rickenbackers and particularly the 330 in FG are beautiful guitars. They are also a great guitar to play. Enjoy.
