This 1975 Rickenbacker 320 is the first 320 I have seen with an F hole and the color is rare for a 320.

Wasn't the point of the 320 that they had f-holes? Well, not the point, but they were cashing in on the Lennon/Beatles market, but with an f-hole 325 0_o Not seen them in that colour, though.

That is rare, probably because that color sucks.

Winchester VA claim to fame: Patsy Cline. Of course, they hated her at the time. She was from the wrong side of the tracks or somethin. I think the all white lacks drama, but is unique.

Personally I think it's lovely. Those are a bit too small for me though, I used to have a copy of one.

That is the first 320 I've seen with an F hole.The ones I have seen have a solid top. I have only seen 325's with an F hole and most of those were export models like the RM1996.

Aha, I see now. I didn't notice the Hi-Gains, and didn't really think about the R tailpiece as opposed to the trem.

Would that color be considered Snoglo?

Anyway, that looked nice, and 2500ish seems like a fair price.
