1977 Rick 320 in White produced after production ceased?

[jstelter]

Hi!

I have a 1977 Rick 320 in White and the serial number on the jack plate indictes a production year of 1977. But, the Rickenbacker book indicates that production ceased on the 320 in 1975. Can this guitar be a special order 320 that was made after general production ceased?

Thanks!

Welcome, James!
There have been several instances where an instrument left the factory long after is had been discontinued. Yours may certainly be such.

I daresay that's a typo in the book. My 320 dates from July 1982, and I bought it new in Spring of '83.
