I thought I'd share some pix of my vintage Rickenbackers. The Rick bug has bitten.

Very nice! We don't see those too often.
The JETGLO finish name should be officially changed to JETGLO ROCKS!
Re: My Vintage Rickenbackers
I never thought that I would ever find one let alone own one. I've been looking for a while.

Both of them are superb!!!

You're quite lucky. I've often wondered what the F series guitars sound like.

Just teasing; very resonant-even more so than the C63 12 does.

Re: My Vintage Rickenbackers
They each play and sound very different. The 1958 330F has a wider neck. The back of the neck is kind of flat and really feels good in your hand. I've got a variac on the way for my old Vox. I blew one of the original speakers since the voltage coming out of the wall was 125-132 and it cooked it. Variacs allow you to warm up the tubes and regulate the voltage to 110 which is what used to come from outlets. Seems like I learn everything the hard way. I'm sure I'm by myself on that one. I might post some of the sounds of each on youtube one day.

Re: My Vintage Rickenbackers
Is the MG one already in the Register?
Re: My Vintage Rickenbackers
Nice collection, Chris!
You might want to go for something in Fireglo next!

Re: My Vintage Rickenbackers
The 330F is in the register. Ron helped me post some pix soon after I bought it. I posted these, but I don't remember how I did it now.

Chris's 330F MG is on the Register with photos: http://www.rickresource.com/register/vi ... lebrity%3D
Re: My Vintage Rickenbackers
I was checking that out. I really think his is a '59 model. Maybe Chris can check the pot dates. A '58 would most likely have a long slash soundhole and bridge with no cover. Whether its a '58 or a '59 .......its gorgeous!
