Rickenbacker 620 Jetglo electric guitar

Catalogue No: igRIC-50620JG

The 600 series 'Ricks' have always remained a slightly overlooked part of the overall 'Rick' lineup since their introduction all the way back in 1963. 

With the iconic 'Crested Wave' design, it's hard to see why these models have been overshadowed by the slightly less aesthetically interesting (in my humble opinion) 330 & 360 models over the years, but the 620 has always had a loyal following of star studded devotees. Particularly Mike Campbell of Heartbreakers fame with his iconic prototype 625/12.

The 620 is one of the more articulate and dynamically versatile of the solid body Rickenbacker designs. Finding itself at home in pretty much any and all a musical venture, particularly with the dynamic range of the 'Hi-Gain' pickups.

£2,599.00

The Model 620 features the famous 'Cresting Wave' Maple cutaway body based on an innovative design from the 1950's. A Rosewood fingerboard is punctuated beautifully with triangular pearloid inlay markers, while the maple double bound neck and body are solid through and through. The 620 is electronically engineered to the exacting standards of the 300 series, complete with Rickenbacker's own high gain pickups and stereo output. Successfully retaining the balance from the original specifications, the 620 is another fine example of Rickenbacker quality workmanship.
