Megajp « Hard Day's Night »
Published on 08/18/14 at 08:57360 / 12cordes V64 series, that is the model used by George Harrison after he requested changes to the original prototype (found in the catalog with the mention V63). Body and maple neck, key in Rosewood, 24 frets, pickups like "toaster", trapeze tailpiece, marks shaped keys shark tooth, two volume controls (one for each pickup) and the famous Rick O-Sound (2 tones + Blend) and its enigmatic stereo output. The neck is thin, the 12 mechanical jostling on the head, the guitar is surprisingly light given the bardât that it carries and the legend that it véhicule.De this model validated by Georges Himself will be born the first Rickenbacker 12 string of series 1965 donc.Ce model again identical to the 1964 version was manufactured between 1990 and 2000 in California with the v64 mention a sort of vintage or reissue series.
UTILIZATION
The first thing that strikes it's weight! very light ... and very fine. It is a very effective ergonomics is the quickly in hand, standing perfectly balanced and incredibly comfortable sitting. Then we immediately noticed accessibility to acute, like a Gibson ES 335, for example: two octaves seem accessible.Le table darkens a bit when trying to agree. If the head is compact, it is very difficult to sort through the forest Schaller, one stitch at a place, a mesh upside down ... and AC reverses in the last three cordes.Au start then used with AC does, we realize that the mechanical not go out of tune and are very accurate. The enigmatic Rick-O-Sound with two tones above and below the volumes are not an easy grip. Lightweight and compact guitar but requires some time to adapt.
SOUNDS
Sound level, no discussion possible. It is THE guitar legend, that of "Hard Day's Night" Beatles, the toaster pickups are not fishing for Hi Gain and company equips current models, but then his inimitable and terribly SIXTY.Bien be sure AC put in a vintage amp, VOX AC30 or a Fender Deluxe for me and for the sake of my family, it's a small Princeton 70s Gone with rhythmic arpeggios that sound is crystalline, rich and teeming with harmonic. The handle end and narrow enough readily accepts the capo and drive Simone The Beatles, The Byrds, The Smiths, Jeff Buckley, the legendary sound of the Rickenbacker 12-string, that is it! A guitar often cited in the TOP TEN of the guitars that made the sound of rock.
OVERALL OPINION
I am the paid for my 50 years in 2013, not that I needed it but just to please me. I played guitar for 34 years and therefore this inaccessible guitar always makes me dream, but I read everywhere that "those who have a twelve string not know what to do, who does not have dreams every night ". I'll be a little mean, but honest to the general opinion. It is not easy to play the guitar strings are very close, it is not forgiving investments fingers, so be meticulous in his game. Sounds are typed SIXTY's death and the guitar is expressed on a tube amp.
This is a guitar that will fit in a park guitar player and a perfectionist who seeks the sound of the Beatles. That said and sorry ladies but this guitar care about the pole each time they are used, it's a bomb, a must, reserved for insiders and found enough in France. No regrets, I add that the jetglo finish (black and white) makes it look like a shark with indentation are shaped fin. A monstrous guitar. No regrets at any time.
