The Beatles invaded America in February 1964 with three weekly televised performances on the popular "Ed Sullivan Show". In the second week, while televising from the Deauville Hotel in Miami, Florida, John Lennon was sporting a brand new Rickenbacker 325. This replaced the '58 325 he had purchased some years earlier Hamburg, and played only the week earlier on Sullivan. The 325C64 Miami is an accurate reissue of what was then his new guitar. The Rickenbacker 325C64 features a hollow maple body that is slightly thinner than the 325C58 Hamburg model. The three-quarter sized neck on the 325C64 offers extremely fast action. The 325C64 Miami features three single pole vintage style "toaster" Rickenbacker pickups. These pickups feature a scatter wound design and 7.4k ohm windings, just as the originals from the 60s. The roller type bridge allows for perfect intonation. The three way pickup selector combines with five rotary controls for volume and tone to offer nearly limitless tonal variations. The 325C64 Miami guitar includes a hardshell case covered in silver vinyl covering with black vinyl endcaps. The cases also feature a plush lining to protect the guitar. Due to franchise restrictions, we may not ship Rickenbackers outside the US, Canada, and Mexico.
