I'll have to locate one, Markus. I switched external hard drives a couple of weeks ago and I'm still going through stuff bit by bit. Haven't found those shots yet.

The next member of my Ric family definitely needs to be a 320 or 325. This thread is killing me.

I replaced the nickle tuners with new Ric chromes ones, and the knobs with the classic style and added a Python strap:

It's a factory one-off, with an interesting back story. :roll:

Not a 325 but another factory one-off 12 string, like Paul's, with a story of it's own.

Well, I screwed around with my Photobucket albums, and wound up eliminating a number of pics I'd posted. So, a good excuse to post again!

Here's my little 325 family...now accompanied by their 350/12 cousin, which I'll need to get some pics loaded.

Here is my contribution. It's a mint 1967 RIC 315.
(I posted photos of this 315 on another part of this forum, but it seems more appropriate here - I am still pretty new here and learning my way around).
