It’s always a thrill whenever a cool new Ric makes it our way. And along with the still sorely missed 650 Dakota model, there’s nothing as cool as a nice Fireglo 360. Thirty-one years old, and never gigged, this comes to us via the son of the original owner, and it’s obvious that it has been very carefully looked after by both players – it has never been gigged.
Carved from a single piece of solid timber
The 360’s body is famously carved from a single piece of solid Maple, a construction factor that helps deliver that famous Rickenbacker jangle. And, as favoured by the likes of Paul Weller, Susanna Hoffs, Pete Townshend, Tom Petty, Daniel Johns, Peter Buck, Thom Yorke, Carrie Brownstein of Sleater-Kinney and many, many more, this is one of those legendary guitars that really cuts across everything else in the mix when you give it a bit of a nudge.
Rickenbacker’s top-selling model
As Rickenbacker’s top-selling model, the 360 features a 24¾” scale, 24-fret Maple neck/Rosewood board combination; dual truss-rods; famous Ric ‘Hi-gain’ pickups; Schaller tuners; traditional Rickenbacker split-level pickguard; the stylish Rickenbacker ‘R’ tailpiece; and the equally stylish cats-eye or slash soundhole.
Perfect action
The famous slim Rickenbacker neck is a total delight – its perfect action males this as smooth and fast as you’ve ever imagined. Currently retailing around Australia at $8999, “discounted” to $7999, this is the Rickenbacker bargain of the year!
Free courier delivery
100% ready to plug in and go, the guitar has been played, but not much – as you can see in our photos. It’s in overall Excellent- condition, with just a small, touched-up dinglet in the back of the neck, and comes complete with its original Rickenbacker hard shell case. As with all Just Guitars instruments, your Fireglo 360 includes FREE COURIER DELIVERY to any address in Australia.
