1995 Rickenbacker 360/12V64 Vintage Reissue 12 String Guitar Fireglo w/ OS Body, Case & Tags

$4,199.99

+ shipping

Up for sale, a 1995 Rickenbacker 360/12V64 in near-mint, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with the original silver tolex hardshell case, bill of sale, and cleaning cloth. Rickenbacker's first reissue of the "OS" Old-Style 360 body shape, just like the guitar given to George Harrison in 1964 by Rickenbacker president Francis C. Hall, with correct vintage spec appointments. The 360/12V64 features a double bound body, hot toaster top single coil pickups, a lucite truss rod cover and vintage-style plastics.

The V64's semi-hollow maple construction and X bracing delivers a smooth, authoritative natural acoustic tone that translates through the pickups, with all the shimmer and brightness inherent to maple as a tonewood. Wound hotter than later toaster reissues, these pickups deliver plenty of sparkle, articulation and 12 string chime, with that quintessential Ric jangle. This guitar weighs 7lbs 11oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with fresh strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
