The 620 and 660 are Rickenbacker's solidbody models, for players who want the Rickenbacker voice in a smaller, harder-edged package.
Watch
Why it matters
Rickenbacker lists the 620 as a bound, 21-fret double-cutaway wired for stereo, and the 660 as a wider-necked model with vintage pickups and a trapeze tailpiece, so the two behave quite differently in the hands. The company publishes an annual US retail price list and sells through a small dealer network, which keeps discounting rare and waiting lists normal. Both are solidbody guitars in a brand better known for its hollow and semi-hollow models, which is part of the appeal.
Note
Solidbody Ricks; the 620 is the solid double-cutaway.

Before you buy
