Oh, another thing about my RIC 325 is that the "F Hole" is in the 1 O'Clock position that is fairly rare today. Newer ones have the "F Hole in the 2 O'Clock position. So IF you order one, make sure to order the "F Hole" in the 1 O'Clock position! They are more valuable. The model 320 is not made anymore and has skyrocketed in price and I have 1 of those in Jetglo. It's the same as the 325 but without the vibrato. I'll try to post pix of that another time. Buy a RIC and rock on!

620's are on the small side too, just like my 660 Tom Petty signature RIC. But they are beautiful and I like the wider neck on the 660/12. Rock on my friend.

Thanks, it's 1 of my favorites!

IF this guitar is too small for you (5/8 size) we always called it 3/4 size, try it's grown up brother called the Model 350 (full size), it used to come in 6 and 12 string versions.
-
BTW, if you decide to order or buy 1, they only come in Mapleglo (Blonde) or Jetglo (Black) today. Make sure you pay the extra $450 for the 3 "Toaster Pickups" and another $275 for the "Silver Vintage Case". John Lennon's original 1958 was Mapleglo with gold pickguard and 3 Toaster pickups and 4 toaster knobs. He later painted it black and put on a Bigsby Vibrato. He bought it in Germany with a few dollars down and the promise to pay it off a few dollars a week after that. He "Never" did pay it off!!!!

The odd thing about this guitar is that it only has 2 "TOASTER" pickups! All model 325's and in England, model 1993 had 3 "Toaster" pickups. I called John Hall at Rickenbacker years ago about that and he said very few of these were ever made and people call it a model 310 or 315 if it has the "ACCENT' vibrato like mine does, even tho they were sold as a model 325 and model 325 is written on the body under the pickguard. About 10-15 years ago I saw 2 of these online selling for $15,000, I have no idea what they are going for now. Well kids, that's my story and I'm sticking with it!

I like the Sunburst Casino with the Bigsby like Paul & George have. Pix of my Fireglo RIC 325 coming in a few minutes if I remember how to post them!!!!!!!!!
-
Thanks. I've been looking at the full size Casino. My only slowdown is that I have an Epi "Riviera" with dogear P90's that is basically the same guitar. Not sure what to do on that yet.

Cross over between Beatles "Abbey Road" and Jeff Lynne's "From Out Of Nowhere"
-
TomFest. I think I know you like the "Coupe" better because of it's slightly smaller size, but tell us, is there a difference in sound between the "coupe" and the full sized "Casino"? Which model do you like better for sound with the dog ear P-90's?

^ I'm planning on getting out a bunch of guitars after Christmas and take pix and post them here. I don't like sharing with facebook or any other site. That's not me, I'll find a way that I feel comfortable with and then show you what I have. I'm sure a lot of you think i'm full of shit because you haven't seen me or my guitars online. Well, what can I say, you can't trust anyone anymore. Those are not my rules, they are the rules of today's generation! Not much to look forward too, huh????
-
That Fireglo (red sunburst) 325 RIC John is using as a backup after the headstock broke on his black painted Ric is the same as the 1st RIC I ever bought in 1966. And I still have it in great shape today!!!!!

^ Wish I would have saw that before I pulled the trigger!
