A Classic Electric 12-string for the Modern Guitarist. With its rounded horns, contoured top edge that rolls into back binding, innovative solid/slotted headstock design, and iconic shark fin fingerboard inlays, there’s no mistaking it for anything else. And then there’s the sound: from the Beatles to the Byrds, you’ve heard that unmistakable jangle on countless classic recordings. This venerable 12-string semi-hollowbody electric guitar has seen changes in the ensuing half century, and today’s model is more playable and awesome-sounding than ever. One of the coolest upgrades is the Rick-O-Sound parallel-mono output that sends each of the vintage-style single-coil Toaster Top pickups to its own amplifier or straight into a recording medium for instant stereo guitar. The Rick 360/12C63 was beloved by artists such as George Harrison and Roger McGuinn for its shimmering chord voicings. All-maple construction provides a bright tonal foundation. Everything but the Rickenbacker 360/12C63’s fingerboard is made from high-grade maple. Maple’s density is partly responsible for the 360/12C63’s famous sustain and top-end jangle and shimmer. Maple is also very stable, aiding in maintaining the structural integrity of the neck. The thick rosewood fingerboard adds a touch of warmth and harmonic richness to this otherwise bright instrument. Pearloid triangle inlays add a distinctive visual touch. Toaster Top pickups and 5-knob layout deliver a broad range of tones. The heart and soul of all Rickenbacker guitars are the proprietary electronics. In the 360/12C63 electric 12-string, you’ll find a pair of vintage Toaster Top single-coils. These pickups deliver the stringiness of many other single-coils, but with an aggressive cut that has driven so many guitar tracks through the decades. A 5-knob control layout with blend knob gives you a wide range of sounds to play with. Parallel-mono output for instant stereo guitar. This lets you drive two amps at once for extra output and color blending. This option is also great for studio guitarists. By sending one signal to two sources, you can get an instant stereo track with only one performance. Ric trapeze tailpiece with 12-saddle bridge. Vintage Toaster Top Single-coil.
