Aw c'mon Billy, you know that Rickenbacker rarely do a big "TA-DA!" at NAAM, it's an evolution thing and stuff quietly happens throughout the year.
Well said fella, I wondered how long it would be before the grumbles started. :roll:

Anyway, back to the new and totally fab Ruby...
Does anyone know if this will run alongside all the current colours or is it replacing something like the Mid Blue?
Rob this is now a standard color. alongside the current ones, not replacing anything.
Several of us at the NAMM show were also wondering how long it would take before the grumbles started.
After a great effort by the RIC team to add a beautiful new color to the line up on their great guitars, Then after hours spent taking/resizing and posting pics by Gary and I, we have to read such dlightful comments. Gee, thanks! :roll:
The JETGLO finish name should be officially changed to JETGLO ROCKS! :-)

Haha, I'd have been kinda disappointed if there were no grumbles! Not EVERYONE deserves to be happy you know :twisted:

Let this be a lesson to you Joey – in the future, just don’t post ANY photos. Too much of a risk that someone won’t like what you post. And you wouldn’t want to waste your precious time taking, re-touching, and posting photos if there is a chance someone won’t like them. The nerve of these people! In fact, why stop at photos? You may as well just stop with all those pesky words too - they just tend to angry up the blood.

Well, I did take some videos as well. I not going to bother editing and posting them. Why take the time and then read negative remarks?
