1958 Rickenbacker 345 – FireGlo

Well Strung Guitars

Description

This fully original 1958 Rickenbacker 345 comes in its original FireGlo finish! This first-year example certainly has that late 50s style in spades, with large “TV” knobs, a Kaufmann Vibrola, and a gold acrylic pickguard. This particular piece was definitely played and enjoyed, as evidenced by the wear on the neck and throughout the finish. The combination of this FireGlo finish and Gold accents make this guitar, and these three toaster pickups give this guitar a great sound. This flamed maple neck offers a desirable medium profile for easy playing, and it’s set up with extremely comfortable action!


Overall Condition: 7, playwear throughout, patina and weather checking
