So, not exactly a 325, but playable for me. A 350 is basically a 325 body with full scale neck. I had RIC custom build a 350 for me about 20 years ago. If you can play one and are a large or tall person, the guitar may look like a toy strapped over your shoulder. If you are tall or have large hands you may find a 3/4 guitar to be uncomfortable if not down right un-playable.
Not a deal breaker, but certainly an acquired taste. It's a short scale guitar and that is usually setup with heavy(er) strings than most people are used to playing with.
Note: John Fogerty doesn't count because I've been told his was so modded that it had little in common with an off-the-shelf Rickenbacker 325.Well, a 325 for one thing is a 3/4 scale guitar, so that is an instrument of a different flavor. Any experience with one or any respectable players using one? But for a guitar that everyone seems to love (and is very expensive) why is it that no one famous (beyond Lennon, of course) play one? Do they really play or sound that bad? I've never had the opportunity to play one and I've been holding myself back on taking a chance buying one sound-unheard due to it's lack of being on any recordings other than early Beatles. I love the look and I think I would love the scale.
