We reach the final hour of the Mini Con... Scotty using the Fretless for songs like R.E.M.'s "Man on the Moon" and the Travelling Wilburys' "Handle With Care" ....

The final batch of pics from the finale ...
Check out the yellow surprise Joey borrowed from Scotty for doing The Smithereen's "Blood and Roses" ! (**Caution -- Non Ric content **).
And we followed the Mini Con tradition of polishing off a fine day's jammin with a rockin rendition of "I Saw Her Standing There" for the finale ! It was great day of Ricken-fun ... special thanks and a warm welcome to our new participants Steve and Tom.
Greg, Paul S and Alberto did a great job on the drums and very special thank you to Paul A. who makes it all happen !!

The compliments (and a big thank you) go to Diane and Joey, who did a lot of the photography.
If anyone wants any particular pic, with a higher resolution, send me an e-mail and I'll get it to you.
Re: Eleven Seven Ricken Heaven So Cal Minicon
I second everything Rich said. Quite fun.
Paul's matching Chuck T's and the Big Red were awesome!

That Kubicki Ex-Factor Bass of Scott's is pretty cool! Not the first time I've played it.
Gary & Rich, thanks for posting those pics!

Collin -- can you clarify about your Maple Glo model --- It looks like Toasters, Dot Fret markers, R Tailpiece and 21 Frets ... but no Whammy Bar and no Binding; No third pickup .
Isn't that a 330
