Cool...thanks!

From the experience I had with the 1996 330/12, I am thinking that the necks from the eighties to mid/late nineties might be better for me than the extra thin ones of the sixties and seventies.

I've got a '98 330/12VP in the classifieds that I just now bumped to the top, if you care to have a ...

Thanks Collin...
You nailed it...
I came to the same conclusion on the spot, but then it began gnawing on me...

Was curious if those dowels might have been part of the original design, as I don't ever recall seeing a set neck Ric...

Yep...!

This is the first "modern" Rick 12 I've owned, and I'm certainly enjoying it as much as the vintage examples...

Love to see that thing get the full restoration treatment, but it's also a great sounding guitar as is...

Tom Hobson led the festivities, and I was usually on mandolin...
