RIC Outlet 360 WB Wide Neck Gun Metal Blue
Here it is, a wide-neck 6er with humbuckers and binding:

Interesting shade of blue. Seems to me to be very close to the current Midnight Blue -- but a bit lighter.

No, no, it's a very different color. I think this one is going to be hard to appreciate on a color monitor. You could call it gun metal gray and be accurate, but there's just the slightest tinge of blue in bright light.libratune wrote:Here it is, a wide-neck 6er with humbuckers and binding:

Superb!
I suspect the finish on this is similar to Desert Gold in that it's almost impossible to get an accurate likeness to the true colour with a photograph.
Whatever next......

That looks great, even though it has those skinny srings on it...

I like the square heel.

After looking at all the pics I can see the dominant gray, especially in the photos of the headstock.johnhall wrote: No, no, it's a very different color.

Figures; it shows up on my birthday, and I don't have the $!
Re: RIC Outlet 360 WB Wide Neck Gun Metal Blue
Nice flake to the finish, too, sort of like a grey version of DCM.

It looks great! That would make a nice COY!!
The JETGLO finish name should be officially changed to JETGLO ROCKS!
Re: RIC Outlet 360 WB Wide Neck Gun Metal Blue
John: I love this colour. I am always amazed with the unique finishes that continue to be offered by RIC. Stunning with the black truss-rod cover and the contrasting fret-markers are killer too.
Life, as with music, often requires one to let go of the melody and listen to the rhythm

That's great. We need to see a 4003FL in that scheme. Keep 'em coming, RIC!
Can we have everything louder than everything else?
Re: RIC Outlet 360 WB Wide Neck Gun Metal Blue
Nice... but... the bubinga fretboard really clashes with the color IMNSHO. Now if this one had a nice, black ebony fretboard, well...
I have NO idea what to do with those skinny stringed things... I'm just a bass player...
