@MrBen58862 "MrBen" I have heard that the Janglebox is a good compressor...however, I have never personally played through one or listened to one live so I cannot say for sure. I have vintage toaster pickups in all of my Rickenbacker guitars and I set up a bit of compression on my Yamaha DG Stomp...and that is what I use. I may acquire a Jangle box compressor in the future myself.
Hello Buddy i like that sound of the ricenkbacker, you are a great guitar player i "m
a drummer playing in the hudson sixties band rotterdam holland wish my friends play that guitars.keep up the good work Buddy!!!! greetings from holland!
@5boelie Thanks! I am using the Rickenbacker through a Fender Hot Rod DeVille 4-10 amp and also some compression from a Yamaha DG Stomp Pedal. I do not own a Jangle Box...but I may give one a try sometime. I hear they are great compressors.
Very nice. What were you running the Ric into? Mine always sounded 'thuddy', even through an AC-30. Did you have a compressor on? i did not have the toaster pu's though....
Hi Buddy, I agree with the other posters - you are a great player! My wife just got me a rick 360/12 MG for my 40th b'day (a 20-year dream of mine) and I have been very inspired by your videos. Keep up the great work and posts.
Great playing! Do you find the Rickenbacker 12 strings hard to play? Many people seem to be uncomfortable with the narrow neck, but you're doing just fine.
@ccrholland Thanks! The necks on the Ric 360's are narrow and with the 12-string it does take some getting used to. I hope to get the time to become a decent player on it eventually.
@Bilco1949 Thanks! I think Roger is the only person who can really bring the Ric-12 to its full potential. He has a superior playing technique. I did use more of that terchnique in the "Eight Miles High" video so check it out.
I really enjoy your videos, I also like that your music is in my time period of music. Although I do not play an instrument I think of that time period as a Golden Age of Music. I also want to say Thank You
I love to hear someone that can play a Ric well, and you're one of those people. I'm sure you're familiar with Roger McGuinn. I read somewhere that with the Byrds he kept his 12 turned down to Eb.
Hey Buddy- are you playing that Ric with the tuning of the strings they have from the factory (bass on top of the octave string) or did you switch the strings (octave on top of bass)? I felt it was harder to play a 12 string with the bass on top of the octave strings.
@TurgeonFan77132 My Ric 360-12 and 370-12 both are strung as they came from the Rickenbacker factory. Both are also tuned to standard tuning. Thanks for watching!
mr clontz could you please tell me that model of rickenbacker? because all of the 360's i see today have modern, high gain pickups which do not give the vintage sound for what i play thank you
@ubacam This is a 360-12. I had to take the high gain pickups out and replace them with factory direct vintage toaster pickups. I do have a few models that came with the toasters installed from the factory however.
IM 15, MY FREINDS TELLME THIS MUSIC SUCKS. I TELL THEM THAT THEIR HEAVY METAL AND RAP SUCKS LOL. I NOTICED PETER MAX POSTERS. HES MY FAVORITE ARTIST. MY PARENTS JUST BOUGHT 16 PAINTINGS DONE BY HIM LOL. AWESOME GUITAR PLAYING. THANK YOU FOR UPLOADING THIS. ITS THE BEST ON YOUTUBE.
@garlin80 No...I don't own a Vox amp...although I'll probably get an AC-30 eventually. I was playing through one of my Fender Hot Rod Deville 4-10 amps and they sound pretty good with the Rickenbacker to my ears.
Hey Buddy, I'm sure you know the song 'From a Distance' which was covered by the Byrds in the early to mid 90's...you should try and do the rickenbacker part in there..seeing as how it's pretty prevalent. That would be a-mazing!
@dasvassen Thanks! You should check out Roger McGuinn on the Rickenbacker or any 12-string because he is a true master of the instrument. I wish I were half as good as he is.
Buddy... did you change your 6 saddle bridge to a 12 saddle? If so, did it help very much with intonation? I'm finding my 360/12 is a real bear to play - the Ric necks are so blasted thin. :)
@Painkill3r4 This guitar has the original 6 saddle bridge...although my 370-12 has a 12-saddle bridge. Both of mine are intonated pretty well without problems...but I agree the necks being thin make it a bit more of a challenge to play.
@huskyjerk The percussion and keyboards were performed and recorded by Kenny Carter...my old high school band director...and collaborating musician on many projects over the years. He is an ace musician on many instruments.
Nice job Buddy. I think a 360/12 would probably be just the thing to keep my 620/12 and 330 company. ( do Fender and Gibson enthusiasts have this problem?)
Nice job Buddy. I think a 360/12 would probably be just the thing to keep my 620/12 and 330 company. ( do Fender and Gibson enthusiasts have this problem?)
I bought one about a month ago and I gotta tell you, it's well worth the investment. Mind you, my Ric 330 through the Janglebox sounds like a 12 string Ric with it switched on (which you aleady have) so it may be a moot point in your case. :)
Incidentally, which strings have you found work best with your Rics? I'm considering going to a .09 guage as I find there's not a whole lot of room with 10 guage. Reason I ask is, whatever strings you're using sound fantastic!
@Painkill3r4 Thanks! I'm using the Rickenbacker Brand Compressed Med Round Wound Sting set. I too am thinking about going to .09 guage so that I might use less hand pressure to play chords with.
Thanks for the info about your strings, Buddy. It'll be interesting to see/hear how the .09 guage perfom. Another fellow I've spoken with who also has a 330 said it was like night and day switching from the .10s to the .09s. Unfortunately, Ric doesn't make .09 guage that I can see.
Buddy, do you have to make adjustments on your Rickenbacker 12 stings much. The truss rods. I know NC can get pretty humid, as I spent 6 months at Fort Bragg in 1971?
It is usually very humid where I live during the summer months but I don't have any problems with my 12-strings. They seem to stay in tune and adjusted.
Is it a G tuning? Same as Tambourine Man? If You like 12s you have to try a DeArmond S73-12 , they are a poor man's Rick - I have '67 360-12 to compare it to, and a 366-12 convertible.
Wow! What a nice guitar! - my dream for the next thousand years! Boaaa! Why must that thing so much expensiv? It is the greatest guitar of all times! Rickenbacker !!!!!
To capture the timing,sound and style is really cool. It doesn't hurt having the right equipment either. I might add you have a little gold dust on your playing...well done!
What amp is this going through? Will the 'rickenbacker sound' always come through, regardless of the amp you use, or is it better to have a valve amp like an old AC30 or a Fender twin?
The Rickenbacker sound is very distinct and will always come through...especially with a good tube(valve) amp. I also use a little compression when I'm playing my Rickenbacker guitars.
Hi Buddy came across your videos today "wow" and I gotta tell you it makes me want to pick up my ole 4005-8 string Rickenbacker bass and start playing again.
Your doing a fab job mate keep up the excellent work and lets start a band together real soon! ! !
Thanks! Roger McGuinn definitely fingerpicked this tune although he sometimes used/uses a flat pick and finger picks. I play it both ways...and this is a really simplified version with a flat pick. With that said, I don't know of anyone who is any better on a Rickenbacker 12-string than Roger McGuinn. He is the master of this guitar as far as I can tell. -BC
Hat's off to you. I am a huge fan of any jangly rickenbacker riffs and you do this classic song proud. How much did you get the Rick for? I could never afford one. Maybe when i'm older!
That's a good price. At the moment a 12 string like yours is going for 2 grand. Maybe when I'm more professional i could afford one. Have you heard of The Smiths? Their guitarist is a genius when it comes to Rick riffs.
ok thank you bnut can i find thate fefect in a vox ad50vt?and can you calify my videos please i need teh opinion of an expert like you please well thanks
Yes...I played this version by flatpicking the whole song. I did another version where I used a flat pick and finger picks which is closer to the technique that Roger McGuinn used/uses...although I am nowhere near as good a player as he is. -BC
Very nicely done! I couldn't afford the price the famed Rick myself (limited budget) so I bought the next best thing for a fraction of the cost. It looks better and it sounds extremely close to the Rick. It's a Dean Boca 12 string and it runs for around $350.00 vs thousands. There is a demo on Youtube
Thanks...but I have one point of contention with your comment and I have to say up front that no one pays me to do any of this but there really are almost no guitars on the market that compete with Rickenbacker in quality fit and finish. They are truly in a class all to themselves. -BC
My good sir, well done. Now I want a Rickenbacker, but I can't decide wether to get the 360 or the 330. Which would you suggest? Which one is better in which fields of playing? Thanks.
Thank you very much sir. Keep it up! I'm very surprised I have not heard of you actually, cause I know many Ric players who are Youtube greats. Do you have any recordings that you personally write and or sell?
Thanks! I have played on some material that was written by members of a Praise and Worship Group called "Sentforth". The CD is available on the web over at Cafe' Press. My original material has never been recorded properly so I haven't put it out there but one day I hope to find the time to do it right . Look on You Tube and Garage Band and places like that and you'll find a few of my originals in which I played every instrument and sang. -BC
Perfect. WIll do. And if you want some quick fixes on cd's, just convert your youtube videos to mp3's. But otherwise, keep it up cause you rock. And you have secured my purchase for a 360 once I have all the money.
I normally compress the Rickenbackers with my Yamaha DG Stomp which has a compressor setting. I may get a Jangle Box eventually. I've heard they are very good. -BC
Hi,Buddy,love that Ric sound,would aJanglebox used on a Ric 360-6 have the same effect?

is he doing that with "all flat-picking"???
inkey2 2 years ago
Yes...I played this version by flatpicking the whole song. I did another version where I used a flat pick and finger picks which is closer to the technique that Roger McGuinn used/uses...although I am nowhere near as good a player as he is. -BC

Very nicely done! I couldn't afford the price the famed Rick myself (limited budget) so I bought the next best thing for a fraction of the cost. It looks better and it sounds extremely close to the Rick. It's a Dean Boca 12 string and it runs for around $350.00 vs thousands. There is a demo on Youtube
humbucker98107 2 years ago
Thanks...but I have one point of contention with your comment and I have to say up front that no one pays me to do any of this but there really are almost no guitars on the market that compete with Rickenbacker in quality fit and finish. They are truly in a class all to themselves. -BC

My good sir, well done. Now I want a Rickenbacker, but I can't decide wether to get the 360 or the 330. Which would you suggest? Which one is better in which fields of playing? Thanks.
rem857 2 years ago
Thanks! I personally like the 360 models...especially the 360-12. -BC
BuddyClontz 2 years ago
Thank you very much sir. Keep it up! I'm very surprised I have not heard of you actually, cause I know many Ric players who are Youtube greats. Do you have any recordings that you personally write and or sell?
rem857 2 years ago
Thanks! I have played on some material that was written by members of a Praise and Worship Group called "Sentforth". The CD is available on the web over at Cafe' Press. My original material has never been recorded properly so I haven't put it out there but one day I hope to find the time to do it right . Look on You Tube and Garage Band and places like that and you'll find a few of my originals in which I played every instrument and sang. -BC
BuddyClontz 2 years ago
Perfect. WIll do. And if you want some quick fixes on cd's, just convert your youtube videos to mp3's. But otherwise, keep it up cause you rock. And you have secured my purchase for a 360 once I have all the money.

Hey Buddy, when you have some time do you think you could post a "guitar Lesson" video on this song. I cannot find a "how to" anywhere...

Nicely done Buddy, as always. Are you running it through any compressors/JangleBox/etc?
normvb 2 years ago
I normally compress the Rickenbackers with my Yamaha DG Stomp which has a compressor setting. I may get a Jangle Box eventually. I've heard they are very good. -BC
