Rickenbacker

Description

It's precisely the same great-playing and sounding guitar that George Harrison made so famous, complete with double-bound body, trapeze tailpiece and unique Rickenbacker 12-string headstock. This is the guitar that provided the soundtrack to some of the most memorable music of the '60s and beyond. It matches the 1963 version in every detail with the full sound we all love. Includes hardshell case.

    Unusually narrow neck, small radius fretboard AND 12 strings conspired to make this a bit more challenging to master at first but the look, the feel, and especially that Ric sound keeps me going back to pick it up and play and play and play it! What an incredible instrument!! This guitar was a life-time Dream Machine and now I get to play it everyday.

    Great sound. The blender pot seems bent when rotated. I'll have to have GSC check it out. Plays better than my 660/12.

  • Unbelievable sound

    I have never heard an electric 12 string sound so wonderful! I have the jetglo version. I didn't want the fireglo, too much like George Harrison's model. If there is a con to this magnificent instrument, it is that I cannot get it to stop playing Beatles songs!

  • I Would Recommend This Model to Anyone!

    Unfortunately, we have no way of knowing what the blemish is. However, it would only be a minor cosmetic flaw.
