from all the guitars the Rickenbacker 620 i love the most.


The Rickenbacker 620 is a solid-body guitar manufactured by the Rickenbacker Company. It is part of the 600 series of guitars which all share the distinctive "cresting wave" styled body. The Rickenbacker 620 features triangular fret markers, a thick rosewood fret board, a maple body with neck-thru construction, and maple neck. The 620 also comes standard with a stereo output jack. The guitar's pickups are twin single coil 'Hi-gains'. The Rickenbacker 620 sports the Rickenbacker signature, an 'R' style tailpiece. There is a twelve string version of this guitar available, the Rickenbacker 620/12. The Rickenbacker 620 comes in fireglo, mapleglo, jetglo, and midnight blue finishes from the factory.[1] The 620 is less popular with big recording artists as its siblings the 330 and 360, however some guitarist have consistently used them including Chris Urbanowicz of Editors. Mike Campbell of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers received the very first 620/12 12-string (made in December 1963, actually called a prototype 625/12), and has used it on hits such as Listen to Her Heart and Here Comes My Girl.(wikipedia)
