Rickenbacker 325 review2/13/2023 I tried a new 360 in a shop a month ago and they are really lovely sounding too and are easier to play. I'm going to order a 360 as I loved it too. But the sound between the 325 and 360 is noticeably different. My favourite amps on the AX8 for clean sounds are the Fremen Princeton and Benson presets. I play my 325 through a Vox AC30 C2 and Fractal AX8. The sustain on the 325 is shorter compared with the 360. The 325 sounds more forgiving if you are strumming and crank up the gain. Also picking D chords can be a bit fiddly as some notes get dampened if your fingers touch the nearby string. They are not a very forgiving guitar so if some of your fingers are not placed firmly on the fret board when picking or strumming you will definitely hear the imperfection - more so if you have a clean amp setting. They are a little hard to play because of the shorter neck size but once you get used to it and adjust your playing technique they sound pretty cool. You can get incredibly trebly and incredibly low end sounds and anything in between. It's quite a distinctive sound compared to Fenders and Gibsons. I just picked up a 1996 325 from a collector who does not play guitar so it was unplayed but has some minor corrosion on the bolts due to the ageing process.
