I've got some great pictues of the Rick 362/12 uploaded on the Triode Amplification website at www.triodeamplification.com. You won't find a cleaner all original piece!! Many thanks to Triode Dave for taking the shots and putting them on his site. FYI - Dave is by far the best around if you need any amp repairs or mods. Thanks. Ted

Nice site Ted...

It is factually inaccurate to say though that this model never appeared in any RIC catalog.

There is a nice MG 362 in the 1975 RIC catalog as seen below...

PS. I only want the Serial Number so I can file the images correctly.... Be grateful if you would share it.

Ted, can you put it in the register, it's a special piece and should be cataloged, my AZ is in there. Or PM Brian with the serial and I'm sure he'll help put it up for you.

This guitar is utterly in as new condition as you will ever see. I dont think it has ever seen the light of day and it sure hasnt beed played or gigged with. A true time capsule. Just beautiful craftmanship all around. I believe the serial number is stamped on the input jack plate. Though i did see a date and numbers on the inside of the pickup cavity in the wood itself

Yes that is where it should be... A 1979 should start with the letter S.

Welcome, Ted! That is a beauty of a 362/12!

And thanks for the additional information, Dave! :)

For me it's like having a Prime Rib in front of you but not allowed to eat it. Torture man
If i owned this guitar i would seal it in a giant ziplock bag*
