Gave it to myself on my 60th. I've had her in the house for a while, time for an outing at the bday bash. Shown next to her acoustic siblings (which do get a lot more stage time), and being put to good use (as evidenced by the capo on the 4th fret, the tune must have been "Teach Your Children", key of E :-))

This vintage shot dates back to 1989 when I had my first Ric. The 350 did look a bit ridiculous on my frame back then; it would look tiny on my somewhat "enhanced" frame 25 years later :-) Hence the choice of 381 over 350 when going 12 strings. Well, truth be told, that wasn't the only reason. The 381 is just plain gorgeous!
