For eBay, I'd say yes, as I can't remember ever seeing such a one - the blue with black variant one sees quite often, but ruby & black? Might be rare!Folkie wrote:Would my guitar qualify as rare?
Uncommon, yes. But rare is stretching it. The word is way over-used on ebay, to the point of hype.Folkie wrote:I own a 330/12 with a ruby finish and black hardware. According to the Rickenbacker website, it was made back in April of 1991. Someone on this forum told me it was an uncommon color. Would my guitar qualify as rare?
Uncommon to me sounds like there's one on the 'Bay every now and then - and I've never seen one, so "rare" would fit,imo - but, as "rare" is overused, maybe he should call it "hard to find"?kiramdear wrote:Uncommon, yes.
