Graham, About your Blue boy 365F .
Is it the original tailpiece and vibrato from Rickenbacker ?

As far as I know, yes. It looks like it to me.

Yes, I take that guitar to be a '60 model with the dual jackplate, and more than likely one of the last F's to have a Kauffman. It wasn't long after this that Accents (by Paul) started appearing on the Capris.

Which vibrato work better for you ?
Kauffman or Accent ?
Sorry for my english I'm working on it .

I don't think anybody would actually go out of their way to install a Kauffman, except maybe Paul W.

BTW, that Blue Boy 365 is essentially my dream Rick. Interested in any trades, Graham? I just picked up a snazzy 4005.

Joel....the accent is a much better unit. Although I love the look of the Kauffman.

John.....Don't you go trading that 4005 already!! I hope you keep that for a long, long time!

Thank you Graham
I continue to search picture of 365F with Accent vibrato. It's really hard to find

Graham, indeed that was my 345F. Cool guitar. I am F-less at this time. I've owned 3 but sold them all, like a fool, ha ha. John Minutaglio got one, Graham and Mike Parks another.
