In my opinion, f-holes are boring. The triangle holes are a Rickenbacker trademark. Everybody else has f-holes. Besides: such a modification would not have the slightest impact on the sound or the playability of the guitars. There are other modifications that would make a lot more sense, like wider necks f.e.

Besides the 325 C making its way on the market, at least in Japan in the near future, JH also says, paraphrasing, something else will be unveiled as well at the Yokohama Music Fair in November.

The plot thickens....but F holes are great. Boring? Rics with F holes are still unmistakeably Rics, but with that little extra that pleases a lot of Brits & I suspect a lot of other friends around the world!
I love the slash, but wish the F hole was available as an option on all Rics!

'Rickenbacker'...what a name! After all these years, it still thrills me.
Ric's "F" Hole guitars are a great departure from their signature sound hole IMO. I too wish that they were more readily available.

They are; you just can't see them unless there's a guitar built around them!
