Id recommend a 360 to begin with; better appointed and consistent guitars, and generally better looking anD better woods.
AvoiD the 620. OverateD imho and less easy to sell, with a less obvious Ricky sound.
Not all Rickies are the same. They are truly hand made instruments, and ive owned dogs. Tuning issues are fairly common, so check them out before buying.
As a general rule, I think the 360 sounds a little sweeter, and the 330 more aggressive.
Still THE best looking and coolest guitar out there.
Here is my surviving Ricky, although I will get a Jetglo 330 for the band;
And and early 70's 4001:
And the 12 string is the worst guitar to restring. I have to do it soon, but keep putting it off.
As others have said, the 12 string is a one trick pony - But one hell of a trick

It's very touch sensitive and with great string separation, even through a Marshall type amp.
Gave you a wow for the 620, the tone and the playing, but you also deserve a wis for the point about string separation.
I have a beaten up 381 and love it to pieces. Had this itch for twenty years and finally scratched it last year thanks to a nice gentleman from this very forum.
It's probably a wee bit more jangly that @p90fool's 620 due to the toaster pickups, which are lower output....and janglier.
The distance between the pickups makes for a right proper lovely tone in the middle position. Lots of rich warmth with lots of top end.

Joking - it looks great. I think you've cleaned it!
I've still got the other two anyway...
In defiance of what GavRichList said, the 450 only weighs about 6lb as well.
