"Pick of the Day" - 1990 Rickenbacker 325JL and 1964 Fender Twin Reverb

- Today Jay picked out another excellent signature model, though today's is from Rickenbacker! This 1990 325JL is a John Lennon Limited Edition Rickenbacker 325, in Jetglo finish. The guitar is a 3/4-scale with three Toaster pickups, vibrola, and a 5-knob tone-section all packed into this little chambered body! A bit of light play wear, but overall this instrument is stunning! For amplification, we figured a 1964 Fender Twin Reverb would be appropriate (when isn't it?)

Man Rickenbackers have something magical, i don't know what but its there... I love them... Someday, someday
some day
Couldn’t agree more I’ve played them in a guitar store but honestly playing them always feels an occasion, I hope to be an owner someday too!!😊 A 325 C64 is the one for me!!
In my opinion Rickenbacker guitars of the series 300, designed by the German luthier Roger Rossmeisl from about 1958 belong to the most beautiful, most aesthetic and most distinctive guitars in the world
Rickenbackers are probably the best looking guitars out there, very well made, unique looking & they come set up at the factory and I love mine. But they are not so great lead guitars, they r ok. They r better as Rhythm guitars. You love them but then you gotta own one and try them . Their best lead guitar user was John Fogerty of CCR. Also the 12 string 360 is kinda a one trick pony. Model 325 scale was too small for my hands and taste so I got the full scale version 355JL/LE and I’m glad that I followed my salesman’s advise on that. Cheers.
You should get one. Put flat wound strings on them and go to town.
Back in ‘91 I was in a music store where they had both the 6 and 12-string versions of the full-size scale JL Limited Edition guitars. I could afford only one. I sat there with an amp, a cable, and a guitar stand for hours, going from one guitar to the other and back, unable to make a decision. I knew whichever one I chose I could never have another chance at the other. Finally a sales clerk came up to me and said, “Tough decision, huh ? Let me ask you something; maybe this will help: Do you have any 6 string electrics ?” “Yes, I have 3.” “Do you own any 12 string electrics ?” “No.” “Well, here’s something to think about - if you buy the 12 string, you now have a completely new flavor to add to your sound palette. If it were me, I would want my first 12 string, and you can’t do better than a Rickenbacker !”
I bought the 355/12JL and never looked back. I LOVE that guitar.
I have a 1991 330-12. I got it new and it's still one of my favorite guitars. Nothing sounds like it!
Beg pardon, but this should have been played through a Vox AC30.
Not necessarily. Almost all of their studio recordings were thru Fender amps.
Yes of course VOX AC-30
live perhaps, in studio? mostly Fenders
@@themartykus Only after Brian Epstein died. He made a deal with Vox that as long as he was their manager they'd use Vox amps. And they did.
@@jltrem yeah, you're right, but in studio it wasn't all VOX, you can look at pictures, way before Brian's death. Either way, we don't win anything by being absolutely correct here.
:) You called it a “petite tremolo” arm. The whole guitar is frankly petite. The two times I’ve played one, it’s amazed me that grown adults play them.
Then again, I am totally accustomed to standard scale models. I have similar hands to Tommy Shaw (Styx / Damn Yankees), so you’d think I would prefer a shortscale like the 325. However, my first electric guitar was a Stratocaster, so I just went for standard scale.
I love how you not only didn’t only play Beatles classics, but you also demonstrated the tonal capabilities of all three pickups.
Great Rick! Nice vintage amp!!
Probably the cleanest vintage twin reverb I've ever seen, and that's one versatile guitar .........although I don't think it fits the look of every guitar player out there due to the short scale. But it sounds great I must say
What a beautiful guitar definitely this guitar is for me
That is a tiny guitar.....very cool,!
Very clean playing here.
A gorgeous, unmistakable sound from a beautifully made instrument and one of the most iconic models in history. It's an investment as a limited edition and piece of art, but as an owner-player of two Rics, a 360/6 and a 1993 Plus, I can say that I wouldn't consider the 325 for anything beyond fun noodling -- I mean, I'd never gig with it. I'd opt for the full (24 3/4) scale length version, the 350V63; maybe its longer neck makes the proportions look a little off with the small body, but I think it's just a more practical choice for the average player. ... I thought it was just John who referred to himself as "The Fat Beatle," around the time of the filming of _Help!_
Proud owner of two Rickenbackers, a 360w and a 620!
Love me a rickenbocker
Prefer Rickenbackers though
Tuning issues on those 3/4 guitars.....god bless em! Great video
Great demo , great sound it’s all good , you should do them more often, a lot more ...
WwoowW.!! A very nice Iconic good looking guitar beautiful elegant
Had a 325 back in the day 1966-7......found the frets just a tad too small.
I have three Rickenbacker's. A 360 12 V 64, 325 V64 and a 320 love them all
Give me one Please ;-) !

@@jasonteqja7262 it's a joke, look at the wink. Also we are on youtube not reddit
Starlinyn that was a joke too bud
@@jasonteqja7262 r/Ihavereddit
Its a 5/8 scale guitar.
Not 3/4.
I would replace the top piece of the pick guard with original plain white and put the signed part in a display.
I'm fortunate to have the 12-string version.
Should run it through a Vox AC15 or AC30?
what kind of guitar plays the intro to the video?
Were you videoing this outside a lighthouse?
What makes this one different than the Rickenbacker 325c64?
Nothing. Same guitar.
Love these and the 400 and 600 series but wish they came in adult sizes lol
They do come in full scale they are called a 350 model.
So what is the difference between this one and a C64?
It has a john lennon sticker
Wow🤩
I have one of these it was 94 off the line, don't play it anymore but have not the hart to sell it
Heart*
Wow ...
Lennon never used reverb lever...why? 🤔
Because he was rhythm guitar and mouth organ.
@@jltrem thats why he played the lead in george's something
How does the scale affect playability?
Probably depends on hand size.
Rickenbacker is pronounced with a short A, not a short O.
Ric 325 and Vox go hand in hand
LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THAT PUMPKIN ! .................... AND IT'S NOT EVEN HALLOWEEN.
Where's the distortion?
The fretboard is very short!
Why do people sometimes play the beatles
Ime a massive lennon fan...i was wondering...any chance of you giving me that guitar??...thanks 😂😂😂😂😂..ive got the hofner violin bass...and the epi casino..and the gretch..but not that rick 😉
I’m into poultry so I’ll buy a chicken backer instead!
A sucker is born every minute (to pay $3965 for this guitar)
Lennon had a bigsby
On an earlier instrument.
TOY guitar!
it's 4,000 dollars
It's Ricken-Backer.... not..... Bach-er......... Even folks like Petty, Marr, Buck, and Harrison call it Backer... even the factory.
Think I'll start calling my popcorn Orville Reden back-er...
I'm enough of a Rickenbacker fan, that, I can actually pronounce the name correctly...
I just wish they were not 5 grand.
It is ridonkulously tiny! And I thought my Les Paul was small...
THE "FAT BEATLE" ? YOU CAN'T MAKE THIS SHIT UP FOLKS ............... BUT HE CLEARLY JUST DID.
I really wanna get myself a Rickenbacker but Rickenbacker have a terrible buying system. You have to email someone just to get one and it takes forever
Not very bright sounding Rickenbacker.
I don't know if it made the difference, but the amp's brightness switch was off. I always prefer it on.
you're hearing it through a computer
Maybe he needs a Vox AC- 30 !
Very expensive guitar for one toy
