This might be another dumb question, but it seems like Rickenbacker makes a limited run of custom color guitars every year. What are some of these colors and how do the prices run for nice examples? I've seen turquoise and baby blue guitars that are beautiful.

Bob: Welcome to The Rickenbacker Forum. You can see some of the color of the year choices
here.

I think the add-on for the color of the year is about $100....it varies between vendors, but it's typically a little bit more than any of the standard colors.

And this year we'll have that special color run in addition to the color of the year..

Where can we find out more about it? Was it just a hint dropped by JH?
(I thought the Amber FG was the special and have a 340 AFG on order , but would LOVE to order another special edition model)

My wife thinks I'm one for waiting 18 months for the AFG 340!

I only read the first page on that thread (LOVE the dark MB blue, I have a brighter MB 360/12 that I do with was a shade or two darker.
I stopped reading once I realized I would have some super-expensive GAS for a dark blue 360. I now know that I'll have some GAS for a 75th 360.
