The cheapest I paid for a Ric?
First year Musicman Stingray for a 70s 4001WHT in '79. Well worth it.

In 1965 I paid $175.00 CDN for my 1963 375 FG. It was in immaculate condition as was the case. The Guitar was double bound, and had a gold TRC, gold pick guards, oven style knobs and an accent vibrato c/w original arm. The vintage silver case had a deep blue interior and the keys were still in the case.

I bought it from San Francisco Pawnbrokers in Vancouver B.C.
