New guitar?

Asked by goldilocks (273points) April 1st, 2008 from iPhone

I’m either getting a rickenbacker 360in fireglow or a Gibson godess in violet burst! Which one?

Well what kind of sound/style are you going for? Both are really nice guitars. I personally like the rickenbacker more. It looks way more awesome.

I’d go with the Gibson, myself. How do they feel to you, though?

well I like them both and have played them both. They are both pretty much the same for me so its just a matter of which one I like better! Haha

well i can tell you that they shouldn’t feel exactly the same….at least sound wise….the rickenbacker is a semi hollow body and that Goddess is not so you’re gonna get different tones out of each. I have a solid body telecaster and I love it….you can’t go wrong with a nice solid body…its the most common type of guitar… but its nice to have at least one semi hollow body in your life….i’ve been really wanting to get one lately.
