This iconic guitar is the sound that Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, The Beatles, The Byrds, The Beach Boys, REM, Blue Rodeo, The Mersey Beat and countless others have used to create their definitive sound, the fabric of Rock and Roll History. The folks at Rickenbacker Santa Ana, Ca. take their own sweet time making guitars. You can yell, scream, huff & puff but that won't help you get one any quicker, than a 2 year lead time once ordered. Proudly handcrafted in the U.S.A. This Beauty has sleek contours that make playing her comfortable for the guitarist. The action is fast Thomastik/Infield Flat Wounds 10-44 are on the guitar. The finish is in pristine condition. As a bonus I will include a (Limited Edition) Byrds 50th Anniversary "JangleBox" that will nail that chime all day (Full Moon Fever) Mike Campbell and Roger McGuinn are endorsees of the JangleBox .
