FYI:Rickenbackers are on sale(phone sale only) at Musicians Friend. 330s are $999 and 360s are $1299.I got this guitar because it is just like the first Rickenbacker I ever saw in person(The Jam at CBGB's Theater 1978).

Don't you know?I buy guitars on credit then sell them to buy other guitars.It's a ponzi scheme like Bernie Madoff. :)

For serious... didn't you just buy Gibson LP?

How do I start a ponzi scheme like that?

They told me all colors of the Rickenbacker are on sale 330s $999(reg price $1799 ) and 360s $1299(reg price $2299) I don't know how long sale will last. You have to call and ask for the "phone special".

Congrats on the engagement! But hey, you now can ask for one as a wedding gift idea.

It's old news actually, but I just bought the ring last week though, which was...um, Rickenbacker priced.......

Shit though, I might still have to do this....if I need money later on I'm sure I could get more than $999 for a next to new jetglo 330.

i passed on a nicely worn white 360 earlier this year and have been planning out some tele based project to make up for it as i never thought a ric would fall in my "no guitars over $1000 usd" rule. good choice on the colour, mine will hopefully be here w/i 2 weeks :lol:
