The Rickenbacker Model 660 and 660/12 feature a solid charactered maple cutaway body based on an innovative design from the 1950's. A white bound rosewood fingerboard is punctuated beautifully with triangular pearloid inlay markers. Rickenbacker's trademark "checkered" black and white binding set off the body. The Rickenbacker 660 series is electronically engineered to the exacting standards of the vintage reissue series, complete with vintage reissue-type pickups.
