Just curious if anyone has ever checked this thing out, it is super modified, but a 71 rick 4001, used and spec'd by Joey Demiao of Manowar, Not really a big fan of them but I have seen pics of him playing other ricks supermodified, especially the necks

This was his backup, They have some pics of the original when it was less modified, he bought it for 500 bucks way back when and now it is insured for some 20,000, why I will never know. The worst part is they probably took some super pristine 71' model off the market from the collectors and carved it all up just to make a backup

Ewwwww! Poor thing. No TRC? Does RIC not want to be involved with that awful thing?

Don't get me wrong... this thing draws a gag reflex... but you would think that if you are going to get a custom pickguard you would at least make sure it contours with the lines of the body.

Did they take out wood and place the bridge inside the body?
