Posted this before but made a hash of it so here's a fresh new post with pics and video!

Here's my Ricky 360 in Fireglo. Picked it up around 15 years ago at the UK Music show in Birmingham when it was just a year old. For various reasons, I moved out of my folks house a year or so afterwards (not locally either) and had to leave this behind. We were only reunited recently when I got a place big enough to bring all my guitars with me so this is a 16/17 year old guitar with barely 2 years of playing. House purchase beckons so want to move it on before we get reacquainted and I convince myself to keep it.

I have a lot of other guitars so this didn't see a whole lot of action even back then. I did used to love playing along to Coral records and cranking out that spiky 60s rhythm stuff though...

Pics are below. It really is in spectacular condition for it's age. No dings anywhere and absolutely minimal fretwear.

Apparently the first owner had decided to start a Jam tribute band (should have got a 330 says I but whatever) and quickly got bored. Unfortunately, he must also have worn a watch on the wrong arm too. There is some slight surface crazing where your right arm goes. Doesn't go through the wood or anything but it's worth mentioning. It might even polish out if you've got the right stuff. If it wasn't there you'd think it new.

Comes with case, stereo cable, cloth and I'll even chuck in the leather strap.

These are £2799 new these days which seems crazy but I'm asking £1295. Less than half. That seems crazy too but hey, we live in crazy times! Based in London but travel south and north so may be able to meet in several convenient areas!

Pics and video (from 2.40) from a recent shoot. Just try and spot the marks - it GLEAMS!!

    The band sound great too - I assume you are the talented chap who looks like a cross between Barry Gibb and Badly Drawn Boy - Badly Drawn Barry Gibb perhaps.......

    Rickenbumper. Make me an offer.

    Maybe taking trades now, too. Fancy a 70s strat in natural (vintage or reissue) or trade up to a natural or walnut 335.

  • A little drop to 1200. Had a trade offer from a shop but would rather save someone the price hike and let them have it for the same.

  • There's someone on my local gumtree trying to sell a used 330 for £1650 (he's dropped it from £1750!). so this is a super price for a 360. Someone buy it please!

  • Just bumping. Still interested in offers, now also interested in trades for reasonable electro-acoustics or PA gear.

  • It seems it's all about Christmasbackers. Seems they're all selling this week!

    Mine's gone to fellow fretboarder Neurone, a very pleasant chap from France. Had a nice long chat about Jaguars, electronics and all sorts. Absolutely wouldn't hesitate to deal with him again in future!
