Very, very nice! Welcome to the Rickenbacker club (and, more particularly, the 620 chapter)!

Brilliant guitar Michael!

Welcome to the 620 club... I love 'em myself...

So what are you impressions now that you've played her?

Immediately I liked the pickups. Quickly found some nice tones.
Also the controls are laid out nice for me. On my strat I hit the pickup switch accidently once in a while.
Love the looks. Very happy with the Midnight Blue.
Musiciansfriend was great to work with.
Very happy with the purchase.
I plan on searching this site for tips on changing out the strings with this tail piece.

Nice! What made you pick the 620 over other models?

Hey Michael,
Congrats on your "first" RIC!

Bet you also have a hollow body 330/360 in a year!

My first Ric was a 620 too ( a 12 though) I still love it and sometimes I wish I had a 6er too.
That is also a very pretty Strat you have there.

Nice 620!

I just got my first Ric recently and I got a 620, too! Mine's Fireglo, but that Midnight Blue looks pretty sharp.

Probably came down to Guitar for the Dollar. Also their was a used 620 in a consignment shop down here, so I got to see and play it.
