Help! My regular business is swamped with calls for the Swami.

In a couple of weeks I will be having my
350V63 setup. I'll bring it to GC for that
only because the guy did a great job on my
Gretsch. GC is a client and this guy comes
in only on Saturday to do the setups. I'm
very happy with him. The 350V63 is one great
guitar and very easy to play. I'm keeping this
one and I only use Rickenbacker strings on it.

Very nice Barry. You definitely qualify for something special. We have a 350 fellowship?. Why am I always the last one to know these things?

Hey Berry, Nice Guitar! I didn't know that
there was a 350 fellowship when did it start.
I just bought some new strings for my 350V63
and I said to one of the owners if you had the
Blueburst I would have bought it. My Jetglow
look great and plays real good. Berry what
Amp are you using? Did you buy it from Tony
or someone else.

Well damn! I always told him to sell that Burg 350 to ME when he wanted to get rid of it!

Obviously, a beauty Barry.

Very nice, Barry..... gorgeous in fact!

Brian got his first look at my Montezuma Brown 350v63 last night and he seems impressed.... perhaps an understatement, Brian? Image

The guitar is a beauty Aitch. I love it so much that I almost left my pick on it last night...you know what that means eh?

LOL I didn't know if there was a 350 fellowship either!!! Obviously there is a good case for having one.

This was a case of GAS on sight, so at the moment Lou I'm using a POS practice amp (sacrilege I know) while my wallet recovers...although I'm tempted to try it through my F**der TBP-1 bass preamp!!!

The guy I bought it from purchased it from Rics'R'Us not long after Tony let it go, he is a RIC nut too and has had most models, his main guitar is a gorgeous 'orange' FG 620 and his band 'Bobbie Peru' have a page on myspace. :^)

That's a cracking gtr Barry. I've actually owned it twice, but I do various deals & no gtr is sacred to me I'm afraid. I get gtrs that I really like & that was definately one of them, but the only one that is sticking is my '97 345.

That gtr has probably the best neck I've ever played...shame it isn't fireglo, I'd probably still have it....Image
'Rickenbacker'...what a name! After all these years, it still thrills me.

Tony, just go back from GC where I had the 350V63
setup. It needed a little TLC and now its fine
and the person who set it up asked me if the
next time that I bring it in we try 11 on it.
I said ok maybe it will give the guitar a
different sound.

Very nice...I made the mistake of selling my first-ever Ric, a 350v63 fireglo. Looks like you scored a really nice instrument!
