Rickenbacker 360 Mapleglo

What we say:

At A Glance

The Rickenbacker 360 Mapleglo is a stunning guitar. This revolutionary design appeared in the 1960s and has been subtly updated over time to incorporate modern advances like Schaller tuners and Hi-gain pickups. It certainly has a classic sound and obviously nails that iconic look, but as soon as you play it , you'll realise that it has the feel of a modern instrument that can certainly go the distance.

Features We Love:

Hi-Gain Pickups

Developed to handle the more versatile range of tones required by guitarists in the late 60s, these Hi-Gain pickups are tighter wound and feature exposed adjustable pole pieces to achieve a fatter tone without losing the ability to tap into that signature Rickenbacker chime.

24 3/4" Scale Length

Familiar and inviting, the scale length used on the 360 makes it easy to get to grips with right from the outset. Whether you are doing solos or backing rhythms, it all plays smoothly with a good amount of tension.

Vintage Looks

There is no mistaking that classic look of a Rickenbacker and the 360 has managed to keep that alive and well. The contoured hollowbody and Trapeze tailpiece are a great nod of the hat to times gone by, but also keep the standards high as they are throughout this astounding model.
