Rickenbacker 620VP 1990s

This distinctive solid-body electric guitar delivers the classic Rickenbacker look, construction and clear, articulate character that have made the 620 a lasting favourite.

Iconic Cresting Wave Design

The 620 features a solid maple body and through-body maple neck, paired with a rosewood fingerboard and triangular pearloid fret markers. Its double-bound body and neck give the instrument the distinctive appearance associated with Rickenbacker's 600 Series.
