Description
Lovies Guitars is excited to offer up this 2023 Rickenbacker 620 Electric Guitar with a Fireglo Finish! The Rickenbacker 620 electric guitar offers you the unmistakable jangle of a great Ricky with the performance of a great solidbody. The 620 was first released in the 1950s to offer budding rock ‘n’ rollers a great instrument to play. It has since been seen in the hands of such guitar luminaries as Mike Campbell of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. The 620’s all-maple construction and Hi-gain single-coil pickups deliver the legendary tone that goes hand in hand with the Rickenbacker name. And the 620 even boasts the famed Rick-O-Sound stereo output for expanded sonic possibilities.
With the “Frying Pan” lap steel, Rickenbacker may have been the first electric guitar company with a solidbody model on the market. But with the advent of rock ‘n’ roll came this 620 solidbody electric guitar. The 620’s “Cresting Wave” body style was a hit with many guitarists of the time, and demand for the guitar hasn’t diminished since that time.
Everything but the fretboard of the Rickenbacker 620 solidbody electric guitar is built from high-grade maple. Maple is chosen for its dense nature that adds sustain and top-end clarity to the tone. It is also very stable, aiding in maintaining the structural integrity of the 620’s neck. The rosewood fretboard adds a touch of warmth and harmonic richness to the otherwise bright instrument, and the triangular pearloid inlays look wonderful against its chocolaty hues.
The heart and soul of all Rickenbackers is the company’s proprietary electronics. In the 620 electric guitar, you’ll find a pair of Rickenbacker Hi-gain single-coil pickups that deliver the stringiness of many other single-coils but with an aggressive cut that brings out the full jangle and chime that has driven so many rhythm and lead guitar tracks through the decades. A 5-knob control layout lets you blend the two pickups to your ideal levels. Rickenbacker also spec’d the 620 with two output jacks. The first is a standard mono output. The second is a stereo Rick-O-Sound output, which outputs both pickups as a seperate signal. Just think about the possibilities! You can feed your 360’s neck pickup into a clean American tweed for bass definition, then out your bridge pickup to an overdriven British stack for raucous tube grit. This option is also great for studio performers. By sending one signal to two sources, you can get an instant stereo track with only one performance. This guitar is in unplayed shape, rated at 10/10. All original and free of any breaks, cracks or repairs. Included with this guitar is an original hard-shell case and a complimentary sample of Fret-Not, our preferred fretboard cleaner, check it out at fretnot.net! Thank you for considering this exceptional instrument from Lovies Guitars.
