Greetings Ron,

I'll post pic's soon. It's just the one's I've taken don't do any justice to it at all. As soon as I get that perfect shot you'll get to see it. Hopefully sooner then later!

I'm sure everyone else see Paul in the same "Light" that I already see him. And yes I seen there are ...

Dan,

I'm sure you will give on of those two to Melissa. Again The Music Zoo is tops in my book. From now on it is where I will make all my purchases. Wish I found them a few years ago.

My First Scratch-X and Zymol

Greetings,

I really wanted to let Paul, Jingle-Jangle know that I followed his instructions to the letter and I just completed my new 620/6 BlueBurst. Since it is a new guitar I didn't think I would see much difference, if any. I couldn't have been more wrong! First, the light factory swirls are ...

Hi Dan,

Yep, the "Music Zoo" is where I brought my 620/6. It's not a big store but the staff there are great.

Hi Melissa,

Thanks for the welcome. I'm sorry about your husband. I know the horrors being sick and not have insurance. Not that there's much I can do but I'm a Registered Nurse and if there is anything I can help you with (if the Dr's don't explain something to your satisfaction, etc.) Please ...

Hey Dean,

Yea, the Zoo is a great place! I'm really tired of Sam Ash and Guitar Center. I really love that they know what they are talking about and didn't try to sell any guitar that I really didn't want...
I didn't "Zymol" yet because I wasn't sure I could do it to a new guitar. I posted a ...

Jingle-Jangle,

I've only been around a short time but have already read a great deal of your posts on "Scratch-X and Zymol" to know how to do it and to know that you are the RIC Guru when it comes to refurbishing, and shining up a guitar. Oh yea, I also love that AquaGlo...Thanks again.

Hi Howard,

I was only kidding. It doesn't look better in person, no sir as a matter of fact it looks so bad in person that I have to keep it locked up in it's case when not in use! Boy, you would think RIC would make these guitars look better in person!

Jingle-Jangle,

So should I Scratch-X it (I already have the diapers) before doing the Zymol treatment? Thanks for the help.

Hi Squid,

Thanks for the welcome. I guess your right it's not much of a hardship being here in N.Y. with my RIC...

One of my favorite N.Y. songs is Lou Reed's Dirty Blvd. Wow he hit the nail on the head with that song.

RIC's Polishing Cloth

Greetings,

Recently I brought a new 620/6 BlueBurst. When I took it home there was not a swirl on it. Now today as I inspected it closely in preparation of a "Zymol" treatment I've noticed there are very light swirl marks. The only thing that has touched this guitar is the Ric Polishing Cloth ...

Hi Melissa,

I'm so sorry that I brought your guitar, but look at the bright side, when your in California this summer, having fun, and swimming in the Pacific ocean I'll be stuck back here in N.Y. playing my BBR.
