Product Description
The Rickenbacker 360/12C63 is the definitive George Harrison spec 12 string, capturing the look, feel and unmistakable jangle of the original British Invasion era guitars. With its double bound semi hollow maple body, vintage correct Fireglo finish and a pair of toaster top single coils, this is the sound of chiming cleans, Byrds style shimmer and classic Beatles rhythm in a beautifully crafted, stage ready instrument.
Every element of the 360/12C63 is geared towards that airy, harmonically rich 12 string tone. The compact 24.75 inch scale, slim nut width and carefully profiled neck make this one of the most playable electric 12 strings around, while the semi hollow construction keeps the weight comfortable and the resonance lively. Plugged in, the parallel mono output and vintage voiced pickups deliver sparkling articulation that sits perfectly in a mix, whether you are layering studio parts or leading a band.
Visually, it is pure Rickenbacker: double binding front and back, triangle inlays, bound rosewood fingerboard and the iconic trapeze tailpiece all finished in a beautifully shaded Fireglo that recalls the most desirable 1960s examples. This is a guitar that looks as inspiring on the stand as it feels in your hands, inviting you to explore open chords, arpeggios and those instantly recognisable jangle textures.
For players chasing authentic Beatles and Byrds tones, or anyone wanting a premium 12 string that delivers classic character with rock solid modern build quality, the 360/12C63 is a compelling choice. It is a professional grade instrument that rewards a light touch with endless chime and shimmer, and comes ready for the studio or the stage.
Vintage Correct Fireglo Finish and Double Binding
The 360/12C63 features Rickenbacker’s classic Fireglo finish with vintage correct shading, giving you the same sunburst style look seen on era defining recordings and performances. Double binding on the semi hollow maple body highlights the distinctive curves and adds a premium, period accurate aesthetic that stands out under stage lights and in the studio.
Toaster Top Vintage Single Coil Pickups
Equipped with a pair of vintage single coil Toaster Top pickups, this guitar delivers the bright, chiming cleans and airy top end that define the classic Rickenbacker sound. The pickups capture every nuance of 12 string playing, from delicate arpeggios to strummed chords, ensuring your parts cut through the mix with clarity and character.
Semi Hollow Maple Construction
The semi hollow maple body provides a lively, resonant acoustic response that translates into rich sustain and complex overtones when amplified. This construction keeps the instrument responsive and articulate, ideal for the layered jangle and shimmer associated with Beatles and Byrds style arrangements.
Comfortable Short Scale Neck with Classic Appointments
A 24.75 inch scale length, slim nut width and bound rosewood fingerboard make this 12 string surprisingly comfortable and approachable, even for players new to multi string instruments. Triangle inlays and neck binding complete the vintage look, while the set in maple and walnut neck ensures stability and consistent performance.
