Here for sale we have a Rickenbacker 360/12 12 string semi-hollow electric guitar in Fireglo finish. Made in the USA in 2011, this guitar features a set-neck construction comprising a Maple body, 3pc Maple/Walnut neck and 24 fret Lacquered Rosewood fingerboard. Chrome hardware is fitted including an 'R' tailpiece, 6-saddle covered bridge & Schaller sealed tuning machines. A pair of Rickenbacker Hi-Gain single-coil pickups are installed, and are wired to a 3-way toggle switch, independent volume & tone controls & a blend control.
The Maple neck plays very well, with a rather substantially-sized profile which might be described as a 'D' shape. Whilst certainly a deep profile, the nut width is nice and narrow for a 12 string. This makes the guitar feel more like a 6 string, meaning that you can reach tricky chord voicings and play lead lines with ease. The Lacquered Rosewood fingerboard is a rather unique feature of Rickenbacker's which provides a smooth and durable paying surface. The neck-through construction and 600 series signature 'Cresting Wave' body design offers enhanced access to the upper register, whilst the nice compact body keeps the weight low and provides a comfortable playing experience in both standing and seated positions.
The pair of Rickenbacker Hi-Gain single-coil pickups installed in this guitar deliver the bright, jangly tones which are sought after by so many. Both the neck and bridge positions are clear and articulate, capturing all of the nuances of your playing and the full range of all 12 strings. The neck is slightly rounder, helping you to blend into the mix. The bridge is of course brighter, and delivers a tone which easily cuts through the mix to put your playing front and centre. The stereo output allows you to route your signal in a multitude of ways, perfect for creating unique soundscapes. The on-board controls offer comprehensive control of your sound right on the instrument.
Please be aware that for international buyers import fees are not included in our postage and packaging cost, this only covers the cost of the guitar being sent to you. Import fees will be charged by Customs upon the guitar's arrival in the recipient country. Due to Brexit, this also applies to EU buyers. We advise checking the total import cost with Customs as this is not information we are able to accurately provide.
