More Info

From the original 2001 Rickenbacker information sheet on the 325C58 model: “Today’s 325C58 is an exact replica of the 1958 model 325, just as John Lennon first purchased in Hamburg. This hollow-body guitar is sculpted from solid Alder, and is available in natural Mapleglo or Jetglo finish. Featuring gold nameplate and pickguard, gold-on-brown knobs, an elongated jack plate, and Kauffman Vibrola, the 325C58 precisely replicates every detail of the 1958 Model 325.”
