Ive been playing my new to me ricky 360/6 Solidly for the last month. Not professionally or anything like that. An hour or two after work.
Moving to the Rick from my usual fare of Fender and Gibsons didnt feel strange. The 360 neck is narrower, but it didnt feel too strange.
but moving the other way after a month feels very odd. the Fender and gibson necks feel way too wide.
Maybe i need to mix up my playing a bit more?

Why not just sell the Fender & Gibsons and stay happy? Plus, you could then afford another Rickenbacker!

You're a man after my own heart, James.

Joking aside it may come to that.
My other 3 guitars sale value probably totals up to a used 330 in the uk market. Hmmm......

You get used to it.
Personally I don't have an issue with the difference between my 360/6 and my Fenders or whatever. My 610/6 on the other hand has a
very narrow neck, which was a bit of a surprise when it arrived! I was concerned that it would be awkward switching between it and other guitars, but I have used it live and it presents no problem swapping between the 610 and my Squier J Mascis Jazzmaster. Maybe play the different guitars on the same night, so there's less of a shock!
