Up for sale, a 1999 Rickenbacker 325V59 in excellent condition and in perfect working order, complete with the original silver tolex hardshell case, hangtags, and case candy. This rare and discontinued Rickenbacker model is a faithful reissue of the 325 Capri, decked out with a Bigsby B5 vibrato in the same fashion that John Lennon had modified his 325. A short scale Rickenbacker model that truly captures the classic jangle and percussive rhythm familiar to any Beatles fan, this instrument is also very easy on the back at only 7lbs 2oz. Professionally setup here at Mike & Mike's Guitar Bar, this Rickenbacker is dialed in with 12-52 flatwound strings, optimal intonation, and low action.

The maple neck has a fairly chunky C shaped profile, and much of the depth of the profile comes from the generous slab rosewood fretboard. The profile measures .915" at both the 1st and 12th frets. The original frets have well rounded crowns and are virtually flawless with their full factory height. The scale length is 21" as per factory spec for this short scale model, making it easy to execute chord extensions and navigate the fretboard quite speedily. The nut width measures 1 5/8". On the headstock, a set of Kluson-style tuning machines turn smoothly and the gold lucite Rickenbacker truss rod cover is practically mint.

The electronics all function as intended, with an untouched wiring harness and CTS pots that date back to the '98. The three-way pickup selector couples the middle pickup to the neck and bridge for tonal combinations only found on triple pickup models, and this guitar features a unique pickup compliment with the original higher output toaster (reading over 10k ohms) in the bridge position, and two of Rickenbacker's more modern lower output toaster pickups in the neck and middle positions. This yields a very broad tonal range, with more authoritative cut at the bridge, and a certain smoothness in the other two pickup settings. Cosmetic accents include the two-tiered gold pickguard and large "oven" knobs, and the hardware is all in great shape including the chrome pickup covers and bridge which retains its stock cover over the saddles. A very useful and responsive vibrato, the Bigsby B5 is perfect for quick warbles and moderate dives, jumping back to the original pitch with ease. The serial stamped on the jack plate and the original factory label in the control cavity both date to 1999.

There is sparingly little wear to report on this Rickenbacker, with a glossy and 100% original Jetglo nitro lacquer finish. The guitar shows a few faint finish scratches in the clear coat of the nitro, primarily on the back, and a touch of light scuffing on the back lower bout edge, as well as some flaking of the black paint adjacent to the "Bigsby" name on the vibrato tailpiece. The neck profile is flawless, and this discontinued model is in remarkable shape and extremely well-kept since new.

The original silver tolex hardshell case with blue plush interior is included. The original hangtag, polish cloth, and factory paperwork are present too.
