Rickresource Rickenbacker Forum

Well, for once something worked out as I planned.

I bought a 325c58 on Labor Day for $825 with case tax, etc... I think you all read about it.

But it wasn't the Ric I really wanted. Since I was about 15 (36 years ago) I wanted a 360. But GC didn't have one to sell. So I bought the 325 knowing that there was a large vintage guitar show this weekend outside of Dallas.

I sold the 325 to Buffalo Brothers of Carlsbad, CA for $1250 and then bought a 360 with vintage toaster pickups in a MapleGlo finish with case for $1050 from Dave's Guitars of Lacrosee, WI.

Pretty sweet... I get the guitar I really wanted, got to find out what playing a short scale feels like and ended up with 2 fresh Ben Franklins in my pocket.

The 325 was good for the 6 weeks but I am really stoked about the 360. I guess this means I have to move to a different forum!

Thanks for reading!

I'm glad it all worked out in the end for you, Patrick.

Sounds like a good deal for all involved. At $825 that feller got one hell of a deal.

That feller was me in the beginning...

Congrats Patrick!! Enjoy your new 360!! They are great guitars!!

Thanks, mate... I try to play at least 20 minutes a day! I haven't had time today since my sink was stopped up! That hurt the pocketbook!

But I am having a ball... and I love the color an binding. It has a dark strip up the back of the neck to match the head and the back is bound to the body with a white binding. For being so round on the front and edges, the back is very flat...

I have wanted a 360 for about 35 years. And now I have one to pass on to my son and his son...
