Hello,
I just bought a 360/12. I notice that the headstock is not aligned with the back of the guitar. When I lay the guitar on its back (table) and stand behind the headstock looking towards the body, the headstock is tilted/twisted towards on the treble side. When you put a straight edge on the headstock positioned perpendicular to the neck, the straight edge is not level with table and is pointing down. I called the dealer I bought it from and he was the one who “set it up” prior to shipping. He says that’s common on rickenbackers. I also notice the back rocks. There is a gap of about a 1/4 inch between the guitar bottom and tabletop. I thought these guitars had a flat bottom. The guitar does play ok and there is no fret buzz.

So, does anyone else see the headstock turned a bit and have a bottom that isn’t flat?

Thanks,
Doug
