Dealer list

I just checked the "list of dealers that have recently been shipped" guitars from Rickenbacker and it looks as if my 360 BBR is on the list (I'm assuming it's mine - Jackson Music hasn't appeared on this list in the several months I've been checking it and they have just been shipped three Rickenbackers, one of which is a 360 BBR)! Coincidentally, it is 1 year to the day that I ordered it. And, just two days ago I bought a Vox AD30VT (which incidentally I've been having a blast with).
What does this mean exactly? If it is my guitar, when do you think I could expect it to land in NY?
Wuhoo!

Bill, I certainly hope the BBR is yours!
I believe RIC uses FedEX....you're probably looking at about 5-7 days for it to get to the dealer...
Can't wait for my 4004cii/BBR to ship....I check the dealers list EVERY day.

Jeez I hope it
is your's Bill!! You've shown great restraint and patience, I reckon. I'm thinking the next week or so may be a heck of a lot more painful than the last year!
I have my fingers, legs, toes, eyes, etc. crossed in the hope that it is indeed your 360.

They (the dealer) should be able to tell you if it's yours or not.
Sounds like you'll have the perfect combination happening in about a week. Here's hoping!

I'm pretty sure it is mine. I called a couple of weeks ago and they said that they were waiting for a couple of guitars that had been ordered a while ago. Rickenbacker said they were finishing up a BBR 6 string and this was holding up the rest. I said, "Mine's a BBR!" They replied, "Well, you're the guy holding up the others!"
I checked the dealer list yesterday and it wasn't up, just went up today. So that means it was out the factory door today?
Yea, I suspect the next week will be tough!
By the way, if anybody on this forum is awaiting a 4003 BBR and a 330 MG from Jackson Music, those are the other two that appeared on the shipment list (and I apologize if my guitar has been holding these up).

I'm sure you'd be forgiven, Bill.

Bill, When I see gear showing as being shipped, it usually takes a couple of weeks to be ready to ship to you. The dealer has to do their stuff and then it goes. That is my experience as recently as February with my 350V63FG from Elderly.
Your new mantra should be "It is my BBR"...

I know how that is. I have a 380L on order since the stone age... I check it every day.

Lagunas are in production right this very minute...
Should hit the shipping dept in about two to three weeks.

Just got off the phone with the dealer - the BBR is mine indeed and it left the Mothership yesterday!

Yay!!!
I am really so happy for you, Bill. I haven't been through the wait like you have but I have shared your pain and frustration from afar.
