  • Well, my AlderGlo 325c58 is gone, and out of its shed cocoon comes this beautiful MapleGlo Rickenbacker 381v69. Built in 1988, this thing looks like it's never been played, but guess what? I'm gonna play it. Yes, I am. Stay tuned for me actually playing my new Rickenbacker when the kids aren't screaming for their dinner downstairs.

    It's beautiful--can't wait to hear you play it. Your voice is so Zen...you should be a professional voice actor.

    "Stay tuned"...was that a pun? It's funny you unboxed a Rickenbacker from a Gretsch box.

    The sweet smell of a Rickenbacker, I know that !!!
    That´s another tip to recognize an original RIC, smell under the pickups and you'll find that sweet scent

    I wish I had money for guitars. I hate being a teenager. All I own is a Hofner ignition bass. I really want a Hofner cavern bass. Which are like 2000 and I'm a lefty so I have to pay even more

      Well, when I was in high school and college, you couldn't buy a 'real' Hofner at all unless it was a $1500 German made version. I had to buy a fake Hofner at a pawn shop that never quite looked right to me. The Ignition Hofner is a good bass! I'm glad you have that one. It's a good start. By the way, they make a Hofner Contemporary Cavern bass that only costs $800. Maybe a little more for a lefty. It looks exactly like a German made Cavern bass. The Contemporary Hofner basses are like the next step up from an Ignition bass. Not made in Germany, but also not as expensive as a 'real' one.

    • @homebaked1731

      The I was thinking of getting a contemporary cavern bass, though on eBay they are about $1000. And here in Australia you can't find much hofner.

    • @jaintly
      @jaintly  9 років тому

      You're right. Finding a lefty Cavern Bass downunder might be a bit tough. Still, a local guitar shop could order one for you when the time is right. Good luck!

    • @homebaked1731

      Yeh I remember I went to a guitar shop and asked if they had any left handed Fender Telecasters. They said they can order them or any other guitar

      At least you CAN order a lefty Höfner. I tried ordering a lefty Rickenbacker 4003 and they said they weren't taking orders for lefties.

    Nice guitar and by the way have you sold the C58 yet because my younger brother is after one and Rickenbacker have ceased production of that particular 325 ? :( But for me luckily they still do the C64.

    That thing looks pristine. What did it set you back? I'm thinking of pulling the trigger on one.

    • @jaintly
      @jaintly  8 років тому

      It cost what the going rate is for these, used. I won't say exactly, but it's a pretty penny.

  • @marcellog95

    this is the advantage to live in America..... you can get a Rickenbacker without waiting 1 year ..... by the way i hope you do a lot of videos from now on

    You bought a Gretsch but they gave you a Ric. They mixed up two guitars with German names!

    Ah, got rid of the 325 did you?

    • @jaintly
      @jaintly  10 років тому +1

      Yes, I did. It was a hard decision and very bittersweet, but I felt like I needed a full scale Rickenbacker. 'Needed?' Well, wanted. I sold the c58 to a very nice guy in Georgia that is a Beatle guitar nut, too. I actually wondered what you might think of my selling it. But, I've got a new 'woody' one now and I'm going to have to make a plugged in video soon. Once again, the offer is open. If you're ever in Austin, come by and play it! I still like watching your 320 unboxing video. Nice modifications to it with the oven knobs and new pickguard.

      I just got a Jetglo c58 today it was given to me believe it or not! I’m extremely lucky to have my dream guitar at 16. But the 381 is a beauty as well

    Ridiculous. Rickenbackers spend their time in the closets. Complete with case candy. Ridiculous. Guitars are meant to be played. We do not even get to hear what it sounds like. Insane!

      +koekkoekjonge joodrunner He bought it used. So whoever sold it to him most likely sent in a Gretsch box.
