Hi Folks:As some of you know I intend to buy a Rickenbacker 325JL,350JL,350 Hamburg or 360 12 to honor my Mother's memory(I intend to have a plaque mounted with her name and a quotation)anyway Rics are not all that available in Canada and I've only seen one here in NL at Long&McQuade,a Dakota.Can any of my Forum friends south of the border recommend a reputable dealer or distributer where I could buy one?I don't care if it's lightly used as long as it's in excellent to near-mint condition.I've seen some favourable comments about AMS lately,do they deal in Rics?All help and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.Thanks.

Thanks for the info,checked out L&M and Steve's not a Ric to be found,it seems like Canada is Ric-free at the moment.I'll check out Maine as that's our closest state.

I have personally seen Rickenbacker guitars at Avenue Guitar in Edmonton recently. I'll try and swing by tomorrow during work and see if they have any in stock. I know that Long & McQuade has them available but Avenue is the only place where I've actually seen them.

Thanks,I'd really appreciate that.I checked for Rics on L&Ms website today but when I entered Rickenbacker in the search box it came up empty.

Avenue Guitars was my favorite shop when i lived in Edmonton, it's where I bought my Strat, among other things.

Here is a great selection of Rics, many of them one-of-a-kinds, offered by a guy with a great enthusiasm for the brand, my buddy Craig Witty:
