Re: My 1999 Ric is older than Squire and Macca's

You got a great bargain there,I had to break my bank and pay an extra £30 more than yours,a new one was beyond me at the time,I think around £450 in 1982.My mate also picked up a 1968 100 Watt Marshall Super Bass and Cabinet around the same time for a few hundred quid,happy days.
