$500!!!!!!!!!

Yikes. Welcome to the fold, Dennis. 3 pickup, 21 fret Rics are amazing.

If you decide you don't like it, I'll gladly give you $600. ;)

Let's have a look at it now.

Best wishes, Noel

Yeah I'd buy another 370 for 500$ if I had chance!

How does it play?
Noel are you sure it's not a 24 fret?

hi,did some more checking,it is a 360 v64,the 6
string version of harrisons 12 string verson.where the strings go on it is a straight piece of metal
instead of the piece with the r on it.is this a rare
guitar?

sorry to post again but got it straight this time
it is a fireglo 360 v64 with toaster pickups.
i guess 500.00 was a good buy.

Again... a steal. Yes, the trapeze tailpiece. Second easiest Ric tailpiece to re-string and one of the classiest in appearance.

I LOVE my 360V64.

"You say 'hello' -- I say good 'buy'." Wow. I envy your luck. It's a 330, then? Rock on, and welcome to the fold.

Well, what a nice Rickenbacker! It really doesn't matter what model it is. Anything with the Rick nameplate on it and a "3" in front the model number is a good deal at $500.00. Where are you getting these guitars?
