oooh, you're talking about the Rickenbacker (or Richenbacher, depending on where you're from) 360 in jetglo. That model has been around since the late 50's, and was made famous by the Beatles. It's got a kick ass jangly sound. Like a telecaster or esquire with tons of reverb and chorus.

It all depends on the model, where you buy, and if you are going new or used. And in the world of American made guitars, Rickenbackers are actually on the less expensive side.

I was on the site the other day and a Rickenbacker 360 Jetglo was over $1,600.


....yes, that is expensive...(to me at least)

considering a decent LP can go for 6 large, AmStd Strats and Teles are grabbing 2500 or so and PRS Private Stocks are tickling 15 grand or more, I say 1600 for an American made instrument is a pretty good deal.

Especially when you consider what you're getting for the money. Rickenbacker guitars are some of the best sounding in existance.

Edit: Oh, and a Rickenbacker 360 does not cost over $1600. You just saw the list price more than likely. Some companies don't want dealers to display the actual prices on the websites. You just have to email them for it.

1600 isn't bad for an American made in almost anything.
I wish I had 1200 so I can get that dang stupid American Fender Jazz Bass.

you can get them for far far far far less. i was THIS close to getting a 330-12 in fireglo for like 900 used in pristine condition. i really am pissed at myself for not doing it because now there's no way i'll be able to afford that for a while. at this point i'm just dreaming of the cadillac green falcon or 6120. oh gretsch.
