For some time I've been thinking of getting another guitar I looked at a Gretsch G6119-TR
but I passed on that guitar. A friend of mine who buys and sells guitar has a 360Rickenbacker
in Fireglo from 1999. So I talked to him and I told what guitars I have and he said I could trade
both of my guitars for the 360. When I started playing again back in 1988 my real first guitar was a
360 in Fireglo 8) Would it be worth it to do this trade because I would be down to one guitar again.
With the Amp that I have this would be a setup a 360 Rickenbacker and a Top Hat (King Royal) Head
and 2X12 Cab :)

Pretty tough to give any advice on a trade based on the information provided. :wink:

The two guitars that I would trade are a Fender Telecaster and
a Steinberger GR4. When I bought my first guitar back in 1988
it was a 360 Rickenbacker in Fireglo this would bring me full
circle . The other Rickenbacker that I would also look at is the
350V63 wich is my all time favorite guitar 8)

arbiter I was going to trade my Telecaster and Steinberger for the 360
and I ended up selling my Telecaster to him. Without a job and bills to
pay I kept the Steinberger and with the money from the sale I paid on
some bills. I'm less then five miles from Chris guitars so I can always
call and go over to check out a guitar. I'm down to just one guitar and
I'm starting to save to get another if he still has the 360 when I have
the money then I would buy it. He buys and sells a lot of guitars and
the one that I would like to get would be a 350V63 and if that didn't
happen then I would look at a 330 or 360.
