Description
The Model 660 features a charactered 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. Rickenbacker's trademark "checkered" black and white binding set off the body, while white binding graces the neck. The 660 is electronically engineered to the exacting standards of the vintage reissue series, complete with Rickenbacker's own vintage reissue-type pickups. Professionally set up by Cream City Music with fresh strings & low action, so it plays & sounds great!
