      The scale is not as small as some people suppose. Take a guitar of standard scale length (about 25 inches), and put a capo on the third fret, and you will have the same fret spacing as a Rickenbacker 325.

    • @davidkieltyka9
      @davidkieltyka9 7 місяців тому +6

      The four main pots are just standard volume & tone controls. The fifth pot (“blend”) is a master volume for the neck pickup on 2-pickup Rics and for the neck & middle p’ups on 3-pickup guitars like this one. The blend knob takes the volume down from full to about halfway.
      On this guitar the pickup selector switch gives you the bridge alone in position 1, all three pickups in pos. 2 and neck & middle in pos. 3. Some folks mod this to other configurations, but this particular guitar sounds stock to me.

    Think every guitar player needs some kind of off brand semi hollow/ hollow body. For the sakes of variety. Gave a $600 casino I got recently a an A1 fret level, crown, and polish job, rolled the edges, bone nut, intonation and set up. Wow, that guitar is hitting way above it's weight class. Feels like a custom shop guitar now. See the potential in a lot of these off brand guitars. They can be serious instruments if you have the means to fix em up.

  • @ericbgordon1575
    @ericbgordon1575 7 місяців тому

    Like everybody who wanted to become an electric guitar player after watching footage of the beatles, I wanted this model. What do you do not know is that I wasn't going to get to play one until after I had learned how to play guitar on standard scale instruments. When I finally did pick up a 325, I was a little disappointed at the short scale. Even though I imagine that my hands are smaller than John's hands, they were still ill suited to playing this model.
    What does Jen squeal at the end? Tammy Wynette?

      Rickenbacker’s dealer relations is so poor that most stores don’t cary them, and as a brand they’re so snooty that you as a consumer are not even allowed to know what the msrp is. It seems like they don’t even want us to buy the guitars, so why should we pronounce it correctly?

      @@starchores you could spend 5 mins on the internet and find out the msrp for most models fairly easily, but my understanding is that they believe enough in their product that they trust serious customers will be willing to spend more than 5 mins of their time (and money) on a quality product, with upfront cost not being the primary concern.
      Whether it’s worth it/makes sense remains in the fretting hand of the beholder, but it’s difficult to call it a failing business model given their history 🤷‍♂️

It just leaves a bad taste in the customers’ mouth.
