WOW that is one beeeutiful guitar. I've always loved the sound of Rickenbacker guitars, especially their electric 12 string models. even though its something i wouldnt use at a gig i'd still like to own one someday
I had the opportunity once to buy one that was traded in to the music shop in Armidale when i lived there, 12 string electric, dont know what model number was, but it had the BEST action i had ever seen on a 12 string, this thing was silky soft to play.. amazing!!.. but i let it slide though...couldnt spare the money
Cheers mate, it's been a great day playing and playing and playing.
I love Rics and it is interesting you mentioned 12 strings. I have my eye on another Ric....a 360v 12 string in amber fireglow as well as another strat or tele..haven't decided on the fender yet. I have gone guitar crazy again.
I like Rics both for live and recording work, their sound is so unique and they look like a peice of art as much as an instrument. Yeah they are pricey guitars and there are no distributors for them new in australia any more, so I have to get them from the states but by doing this it's much cheaper than if you were to buy one in a oz guitar shop, even after the shipping and import duties.
