Very nice 620 Rick!

The jetglo white trim ones are my favorite...

So how does it play and sound??

So how does it play and sound??

The Hi Gains on this one have a nice level of out put to them and can handle some distortion and down right rock playing. My 660 with the VP's has a thinner more chimmy sound, as a VP should. They are definitely different sounding guitar. With the narrow neck the 620 also also plays faster. With the wider neck I like the 660 for pick'in and the 620 for barre cord rock'in.

I feel that the 620's at around 1000 bucks used are an overlooked Rick bargin compared to the hollow bodies. If I could I'd have one in every color. Someday I hope to use PW's services to retro this gal to a "V79" with a toaster top cover conversion to the high gains, vintage TRC and tuners so she looks like this 1979 620 JG guitar in the register:

I like the Jetglo with white trim look on a 620. It also looks good on a 610:

That's her way of telling daddy the guitar is her's now!

Aww that's just so cute!

Now you have to teach her how to play!

She loves the 620 model...when I said we should take her picture with a Rickenbacker for her project she said "Oh I want the one with the CRESTED WAVE!"

She can strum pretty well. She just needs to learn a few chords and we are good to go

You haven't lost a guitar, you've gained a tiny little accompanist.

What a cutie!

What hers is hers and what's yours is hers too!

John:

Your 1965 615 came with Van Ghent tuners?

There is one just like that on ebay right now that has the same - the Jackplate is gone though. Is that the same guitar as yours?

With the jackplate gone I am guessing they dated the guitar from the pots...
