Woody: I wish I had just received a new Rickenbacker so that I might speak with more confidence (not to mention more enthusiasm) however, you should expect to receive a manual, a polish cloth, and a small plastic bag with an Allen key for adjusting the bridge and a key for the case lock. You will need to buy a hexalite wrench or reasonable facsimile to make adjustments to the truss-rod. I believe that is all of the ancilliary materials that accompany a new Rickenbacker.

Just picked up my new 330/6 (in Mapleglo--very nice-looking instrument) on May 30; it came with a rolled-up one-page colour catalogue, polishing cloth, two keys for the case, generic instruction manual and two Allen wrenches of slightly different sizes. One for the saddle height adjustment and one for the intonation? Both wrenches are pretty small--I doubt that either would be for the truss rod adjustment, which I hope I don't need for a long while yet anyway.

I recently played(for the first time ever!)a 330/6 and a 360/6 at the local Sam Ash. My question is: when did Rickenbacker start using the solid center block on these guitars? Has that been a feature from the beginning?

My new 360/12CW came with THREE allen wrenches!
