That 330F is gorgeous, Chris.

My office has changed a bit, but not much. I built some shelves in the closet and have been storing most of my effects, cables, etc. in there.

I had to make my own right-angle speaker cable to put the cab against the wall, because apparently no one makes a premade right-angle speaker cable. I thought I was going crazy until I spoke to a rep from ProCo at Sweetwater who told me that their hardware supplier dosen't make a 1/4" right-angle jack with a collar wide enough to accomodate the thick twin conductor wire used in speaker cabling. Go figure.
Moving the amp to that wall also presented another problem, because it eliminated the "cubby" I had behind that corner where I kept all the Comcast junk that makes my television work. These irritating DTA boxes are required to decode Comcasts' encrypted broadcast so you've gotta place one on every TV in your house, and without that space I had to get creative. This all sits flat against the wall with the amp a few inches in front of it to maintain airflow, the small round puck hanging from the box on a t-bracket I made out of styrene is an IR blaster that lets the remote for my television control the box. The round receptacle to the left is where I run cables behind the wall up to where the TV is mounted.

That mapleglo 330f is burning a hole in my mind. Is this how the madness starts?

It depends on whether you consider a madness, or a calling.

I found the 330F in Nashville at Gruhns. The consigned had two of them. I had searched for one for a long time and couldn't believe my eyes when I saw TWO F models hanging on the wall I have a very cool wife who understands my RIC obsession. The neck is more of a U shape and seems wider at the nut. Hand cups neck perfectly. Clean guitar all around. It reminds me of an Autoharp on steroids through the Vox. This one spoke to me and I bought it...life's short.

Meaningful relationships are what life's all about.

So does the 330f make for a good jazz box?

Most definetly.

Chris,

seems like we have a similar taste regarding full body Rickenbackers Now that Graham, Ron and I each own a jetglo 360F, yours must be the 4th example I came across so far...

Gotta' love Jetglo, it has a certain noir-ness to it!

That is so dark.

For years, I had looked for another 4005WB in Jetglo, but only came across one other that a Japanese collector had. So four 360Fs in Jetglo is a bonanza!

I got mine from Ron...so just three I guess

It looks exactly like this right now, excepting that I'm in that chair.

Those are your computer speakers?

Yeah!

Hard to get a good shot, what with the windows.
