New 660/12 Burgundy...

Post by mesadude »

Hi. I'm new to the forum (and Rickenbackers). I just received a new 660/12 Burgundy yesterday and had a chance to use it last night. What a super little guitar! I've already worked it into some of my band's tunes.
I've been playing electric guitar since 1963 and have always wanted a Rickenbacker. I just never acted on it. I'm glad I finally did.

I also just picked up a new Gretsch 6122SP just a couple of months ago. Also really nice. I'm mainly a Carvin player, and have a few Gibsons and a token Fender Strat and a couple of Ibanez guitars, and a token Brian May Burns. And I'd been using a Vox Phantom XII until I sold it a few years ago, and had since replaced it with a Phantom Guitars Phantom XII. This just was NOT a Rickenbacker. Hence the move towards the 660/12.

I can now successfully play Beatles (among others) tunes with the proper gear! I'll post pix of the 660/12 as soon as I snap some later.
It's nice to finally own a real Rickenbacker.
Craig
