I have never seen a Ric Acoustic. What a beautiful guitar. Does it sound as good as it looks?

Absolutely.... See the current thread about Ric acoustics vs. Martins. I have never heard or played another guitar that I have liked as much as the Ric Comstock.

And yes, Howard, that picture appeared last March in our local newspaper, in a write-up about the Local Musician's Night that I participated in....

I asked under another topic, but will someone please explain how to post photos again. Or Peter, can you put the instructions under the "posting help" section? Thanks. Ben

Scoobster.....

All you need is a .jpg file no larger than 500 x 500 pixels and 35k or less in size. Click on the 'Upload Attachment' button below, locate the image (using the 'Browse' option) in the new window and follow the bouncing ball from there.

Most images are too large, so I simply use MS Paint to load the image, do a cut and paste into a new image and resize if necessary prior to posting.

.bmp files are usually too large (bytes wise) to post so it's best to save them as a .jpg.

If you click on 'Coding' on the left (not 'Help'), there is an 'Other Formatting' section about half way down which deals with images, etc.

Hope this helps. If you're having trouble, email them to me and I'll see what I can do.

Cheers

Great to see so many Ric's - simply outstanding.

In this pic I am playing my 1967 Ric 450. I love this guitar and it really rocks.

Last Sunday on the N shore, Oahu. That's the refinished-to-natural/mapleglo 360 Tuxedo and the VOX AC-15..... those are BOSE 802 speakers... they are GREAT and replaced the larger Yamaha's we used to have. (that's a fill-in drummer as our regular guy wont be back from the madland until the end of the July).

Now if I could just convince Kevin the bass player to use his RIc 4001 instead of that Fender I'd die a happy man.

Paul, I've tried them both and to my ears the composition of the porcelain in the Rick mug is such that I'm able to achieve that elusive "tone"!

;^)

Well, it is a bit hard to get that nice "chime" with a bolt-on handle...

Paul,

.."Chime" with a bolt-on handle. Heh-Heh, huh-huh! Nice one; like it, like it.
