They have? Not based on the quick visit I just had to their site; all it showed was March 2002..

Try emptying your browser cache and hitting a refresh. You might see something new once and awhile.

Don't know why that wasn't there earlier, but it is now. I make a habit of emptying the cache every day, so that wasn't it.Nice chart!

Can't wait to see what 2003 has in store for us color-wise

Check the news page now: the color for 2003 is (drum roll, please):

Montezuma Brown (MB)

http://www.rickenbacker.com/us/options.htm

Reminiscent of Autmnglo to me.

No jokes about Montezuma's revenge, either!

I think this colour choice should make some folks very happy indeed!

Mark me down as pleased with this year's colour. That 381v69 I ordered would have looked real boss with a MB finish to it... Oh well, there's always next timeImage

Happy ordering, MB fans!

RIC has their serial decoder all up to date now. It works fine for my February, 2002 360/12.

David: interesting number. It doesn't correspond to any S/N as described in the Rickenbacker Page Info. Which model is it? Is it a pre-61 guitar?

Aha, got it! This 1958 hollowbody guitar has 2 pickups and a standard tail piece (no vibrato).
See the Rickenbacker Vintage Guitar Info page for the gory details.
The algorithm is not easy to implement, although I'm going to give it a try.
