The one ending on 25 with the side of neck and headstock is kind of arty - shows the colour of the wood nicely as well.
Try some more of the 330F from weird angles - might end up better than you think. Good first try though! (Lot better than my pictures
)

Nice pictures Chris!
I had a Jetglo (refinished) 360F a long time ago and sold it to Larry Briggs at one of his Guitar shows here in California, I always regretted that. I wonder if yours is the same one, I mean how many Jetglo 360F's are out there? I'll have to dig up some old pictures (which won't be as nice as yours
)
Either way, great guitars and pictures.
Dan

Thanks for the feedback. I will try changing the light and angles on the 330F. It should bring out the grain of the maple.

Paul, is that an extensive restauration? Looks more like one being build from scratch! Very cool in JG!

Werner, it was completely taken down to component wood pieces, a new back was put on, and the entire instrument was surfaced rebound, refretted, and new crushed pearl markers were poured. I re-used the hardware, as it was pretty nice.
Building one of these from scratch would have added about 30 hours to the total time invested.

30 hours, eh? Quite a lot, but, how long did this restauration take compared to that? Same amount of time?

Paul, is there any scope at all for you to build these models under licence from Rickenbacker, as you do with their acoustics? Given the interest here on this forum alone, I would assume that order numbers would be broadly similar. Thanks, Mark.

I like the Van Ghent tuning keys on there!
