“This guitar broke all the rules of traditional styling when it appeared amid the 'British' sound of the 1960's. Subtly updated through the years, this Deluxe hollow body with its special contour around the entire body perimeter, is still perhaps the most comfortable guitar of all. The bound body and Rosewood fingerboard, inlaid with triangular pearloid markers, provide an exceptionally attractive appearance. Stereo & mono output is standard.”

This Rickenbacker 360/12 was built in April 2005 and bought new by its one owner from a large QLD retailer. It is in excellent condition with very little signs of use. There are some very light marks here & there, but very hard to see unless at a certain angle of light. Neck is straight & strong, tuners & truss rod work perfectly, frets 90% with lots of life left.
This is a faithful replica of one of the most iconic 12 string designs in guitar history. It is the only brand of electric 12 string guitar that can truly replicate the sound of vintage Byrds & Beatles. It has been looked after very well and presents in fantastic shape.
Comes in its original Rickenbacker hard shell case in good condition, along with original Ricky tags and extras including Care and Maintenance manual, two Allen keys & polishing cloth. Also included is –
- An old-style red “curly” cord
- Stereo cord for use with “Rick-o-Sound” output jack
- Maroon leather Rickenbacker brand strap
- Two sets of Rickenbacker brand 12-strings
- a copy of Tony Bacon’s excellent book “Rickenbacker Electric 12 String”
