**PLEASE NOTE THAT I AM AWAY BETWEEN THE 28TH AUG - 4TH SEPT. I CAN SHIP ON THE MORNING OF THE 27TH BUT THEN NOT AGAIN UNTIL THE 5TH - THANKS. DAVE** Excellent Jetglo Rickenbacker 330 12 string here from 2007. I guess you can easily get the full spec for this guitar with a quick Google, so I will leave that to you. However, this 330 has had a significant pickup upgrade to authentic Rickenbacker vintage spec'd Toasters. These pickups retail at 230 each, so a really valuable upgrade, and the original pickups do come with it as well! The guitar is in excellent condition for its age - it has been played but looked after. Looking at it straight on, there are no dings or scratches visible. In fact when you get it up against the light and search, there are just a few super tiny dings on the front and back and there is a light ding on the top horn, again when against the light. Similar story around the sides - just the odd super light indentation here and there. On the top front edge, where the players arm has been there is some lightish scratching and a few light dings. I am calling them as dings but I'm not 100% sure that there haven't been a couple of chips that have been touched in - anyway they are pretty insignificant and I have tried my best to picture them. As you search around the edges there are a few light knocks and dings here and there. As for scratches and as stated, the guitar has been played throughout its life and there are light surface scratches front and back when you get it up against the light, but definitely nothing that is any more than honest and fairly light play wear. I tried to capture this but just impossible with the high gloss. The back of the neck is ding free and the fretboard is in excellent condition. There is next to no fret wear. The headstock is fine with just a couple of very light dings on the top front edge. All electrics are working perfectly. All hardware is in excellent condition and fully functional. The guitar has just had a full setup including a fret level/polish and new strings. It is playing beautifully and sounding just fab! Comes in the original Rickenbacker case which is in fairly good condition - all latches functional but the handle has been replaced with some sturdy wire and tape - works fine and is 100% safe! A bit of a musty smell about the case but nothing a good airing shouldn't solve. So there you go - a beautiful and splendid sounding Ricky 12 string. When you buy a guitar from me you will get: A full setup with a new set of Ernie Ball/D’addario 10's - Neck relief set as straight as possible (let me know if you need more or less relief to suit your playing style) - Nut slot height checked and adjusted where necessary. - Intonation set. - Action set as low as it will go with minimal buzz. - Pickup heights adjusted and volumes balanced. The fretboard cleaned and oiled (rosewood) and the frets properly polished and dressed if necessary. I always look for any high spots on the frets and spot level as part of the polishing process. I will carry out a full fret level where necessary. Full electrics check and components cleaned. All hardware checked and adjusted. A full and thorough clean and polish with quality guitar products. I have years of experience working on all sorts of guitars, so you can buy from me in absolute confidence that the guitar you are buying has been described honestly and is looking, playing and sounding it's best! I will not sell a guitar that is not right! I am happy to consider trades if it helps you to acquire this instrument, but they must be realistic and in my favour as in most cases I will be selling on pretty much straight away - so absolutely needs to be worth my while. I am happy to post. Shipping by Parcel Force 24 will cost you £15 (UK), this includes packaging costs. Please be aware that this is an uninsured service but it is tracked. You can be confident that I pack guitars very well indeed - the guitar is packed inside the case so that it cannot move and with plenty of support for the neck and headstock. The case is then packed into a large cardboard box and the box is packed and padded out with large bubble wrap and filler so that the guitar is fully protected inside. I am confident that it will be fine even if dropped and have never had a problem. If you do want an insured service please discuss cost with me first. I am happy to deliver over reasonable distances for petrol costs.
