It has been a blockbuster (and somewhat expensive) week in the guitar aquisition department over here at my house. A Gretsch (thanks tgibson), yet another Tele and now this--a 1988 Rickenbacker 330 Fireglo in remarkable condition for a nearly 30-year old guitar.

I have never owned a Rickenbacker (never even tried one) but this beauty popped up locally yesterday afternoon and I couldn't throw my money at the seller fast enough. Since then I have been playing it dripping with reverb, a dash of delay and a bucket of 60s fuzz and, oh my!

Beautiful. That intonation though..

Sweet! Congrats on the new axes. That Ricky is sharp. Enjoy!

Haha. Yeah, it could probably use a set up. The saddles look like every single stereo equalizer I touched by in the 80s.

Cool guitar.

I had a copy and loved mine. Really. The new owner is smitten too. I bet the original is something else. Congrats.

My guess is that the previous owner used his acoustic as reference?

That's a beautifull axe! Congrats.

Love the look and sound, but I can't play those necks If I could, I'd definitely own one

Man, you're fast! I saw that too. Congrats.
