John (or anyone), when did Rick/Electro first start using the dual truss rods?

I think it depends on what model(s). What is your 365f?

One rod, really trying to pin down the year. I've been getting different opinions on what it is (jackplate is a mid-70's replacement).

IIRC, basses have had dual rods from the beginning, but some guitars used a single rod up into the 1960s. To be specific, I would have to look back at few instruments and report back in.

FWIW, I have an '86 320/12V63 that has a single rod.
