GALLERY: The Rickenbackers That Rocked the World

Take a walk through this brief historical photo gallery which outlines the beginnings and design progression of the Rickenbacker guitars that rocked the world. Photos and captions by Ron O''Keefe

1965 model 365 O.S. and 1961 model 365 рNew Capri,с both in Fireglo
"The 360 series deluxe model could still be special ordered with body binding on front and back (рold styleс) even after the рnew styleс dominated post-1964 production. Because of that, these mid-to late у60s guitars are rare and desirable. In addition to the double binding, they sport crushed pearl inlays and are usually equipped with Acуcent vibrolas. Note also the slimmer headstock on the 1965 model."
