Rickenbacker 360
Overview
The Rickenbacker 360 is a deluxe semi-hollow electric guitar that builds upon the legendary 330 platform with refined appointments and a bound body that exudes premium craftsmanship from every angle. Built at Rickenbacker's Santa Ana, California factory, the 360 features a maple body with a full-length through-body maple neck, bound rosewood fingerboard, and the signature triangle inlays that are instantly identifiable as Rickenbacker. Two Hi-Gain single-coil pickups produce the shimmering, chiming tone that has been a cornerstone of jangle pop, post-punk, and alternative rock since the 1960s " clean tones ring with crystalline clarity and complex harmonic overtones, while moderate gain settings produce a driven jangle that is entirely unique to Rickenbacker. The stereo Rick-O-Sound output allows players to route each pickup to a separate amplifier for expansive stereo soundscapes, a feature that adventurous players and studio musicians find inspiring. The bound body and headstock, deluxe tailpiece, and high-gloss Fireglo and Jetglo finishes elevate the 360's visual presentation to a level that matches its sonic heritage. The R-style bridge and vintage-style tuners maintain the classic Rickenbacker aesthetic and functional character. This guitar is ideal for professional players in indie, alternative, post-punk, and classic rock who demand the authentic Rickenbacker voice with premium appointments. The vintage-spec bridge and narrow nut width require an adaptation period for players coming from more conventional modern instruments.
