Rickenbacker Production Schedule
I know I'm not alone in wondering when the 620's will make a showing. I've been waiting a year and am about to give and buy one used...IF I can find one on eBay in Jetglo or MB. Does anyone have an inkling as to what their production schedule might look like?
Re: Rickenbacker Production Schedule
Its a well kept secret. I assume you know you can check the Rickenbacker corporate site to see when those models ship, and to whom?
Re: Rickenbacker Production Schedule
David: In the Rickenbacker world a wait of a year is not unusual. Buying used is an excellent idea and great value for those who want an instrument right away. From the Register, which is not definitive by any means, the last runs on the 620, six strings were in July and September 2008

I found my lefty 660/12FG that way back in Dec '08. I called the dealer and asked if it was spoken for. It wasn't and I bought it.kelly wrote:... I assume you know you can check the Rickenbacker corporate site to see when those models ship, and to whom?
More recently, I found a lefty 620/6 the same way. However, in the end, I decided not to buy it.

Re: Rickenbacker Production Schedule
Thanks for pointing me to the register. I'm still finding my way around the forum.
Re: Rickenbacker Production Schedule
David: Take your time. If you read 100 posts per day you will get through the forum material in about 16 years. That will leave you with some time left for the register before you retire!

Re: Rickenbacker Production Schedule
This run is split pretty evenly amongst all the colors too...

Re: Rickenbacker Production Schedule
How about one instrument with all the colors on it.

Wouldn't that be black?jps wrote:How about one instrument with all the colors on it.

No, I mean like psychedelic, man!

Nope, white. Black is the absence of all color.sloop_john_b wrote:Wouldn't that be black?jps wrote:How about one instrument with all the colors on it.

Re: Rickenbacker Production Schedule
Or is it white reflects all colors and contains none and black reflects no colors and retains all?
