Enjoy! I have a 360/12 and it is quite nice. Now you need to get something with toaster pickups  . | ||

Thanks Patrick, for posting the better picture ! This is a 6-stringer. I have a 360/12 FG with toasters. The tone of the toasters is significantly different, but still Ric-like. The toasters definitely look nicer, but I love the warm and dark chiming sound of the high-gains on my 6-string 330 MG and 360 JG. Let's face it folks, this is the year I spoiled myself, and I don't feel the least bit bad about it :-) | ||

It always better to have a pretty baby! Steve, Do you promise to rock her every night? | ||

I'm a rocking drummer, but not a rocking guitar player. On guitar, I make dark chiming sounds, and sing like Elvis and Bono joined forces. | ||

I'm sorely tempted to go further into debt, Steve. There's a new 360/6 JG hanging on the wall at my local dealer.......... HELP!!! | ||

Howard, what is your current Ric inventory? Is there something especially appealing to you about the 360 JG, as there is for me ? The fact that it's black, and used by Peter Buck, Paul Westerberg, and Eddie Vedder are top sellers, for sure !! It is, hands down, for me, the coolest black guitar there is, and the SOUND, I love the modern Ric 6-strings, they are fabulous! Of course, I don't want to put you into more debt, if that is an issue. I hate to say it, but if money is a problem, you might be better off staying away from this addicting forum !! I am a bachelor, no wife, no kids, no debts. I didn't "need" the 360JG, as I already have the 330MG (I have blathered enough about this), I simply spoiled myself. Please share, I can help you ... PS : I am a bit hurt that Peter M hasn't congratulated me yet :-( | ||

I'm sure he'll get to it, Steve!! I currently have a 330/6 FG and a 660/12 FG (both new, with toasters). There isn't a Rick 1320/24 so I can't continue the sequence....haha! I think JG especially suits the 360 and 620 and I would really like to get a 360 next - I want the hi-gains and I just love that neck!! I also like the 360 MG (there's one of those hanging on the wall at another dealer) but I'm pretty sure I'll go for the JG (keeps me loyal to my current dealer who has looked after me very well, also. Come to think of it, he's got a 370/12 MG on the wall too!). I'm trying to bide my time until an expected windfall arrives which will eradicate all my debts (home included) and allow me to indulge in a big way! I have two kids (one still at school), an ex-wife (alimony!!), mortgage, etc. so I'm really pushing things by investing in Ricks at this time. For me it's not a case of 'need' but 'want' - I hope to build up a bit of a collection. Having a Rick addiction and staying away from the forum is virtually impossible. I look at it in the same way as giving up smoking - if you've got a pack sitting on the shelf and you don't touch it you know you are winning!! Thanks for your concern, Steve. I'll be thinking of you and that black beauty!! (sorry - Jetglo). | ||

Sounds like you're off to a good start. I agree that JG looks best w/ white binding, as in the 360 and 620. A 360 JG would fit right in there!! They are classic. | ||

Definitely a classic. 360JG very much has a special mystique for me from the REM influence. |
