Is anyone else out there waiting for one? Mine was ordered April '05 and I'm dying to get it. How long is the typical wait for a "color of the year" Ric?

A while. These have just begun showing up in stores as of late, and chances are they were ones ordered in January 05.

The one I have coming in was ordered by Mike P. on 1/20/05.

All good things come to those who wait..

Did you guys see the one on the sold list at musiczoo.com? It's gorgeous!

I sure did and had inquired about it. It was a 660/6. One of the nicest flame patterns I've seen on a Rickenbacker. It was out of range for my budget.

Yeah, I tried to get it but someone already snagged it.

My 660/6 BBR has been on order with Pick-O-Da-Ricks
since 1/23/05. From looking at the recently shipped list, it looks like they just finished a run of 660s....I wonder when they will start up again...

My 360/12MB was ordered in Dec 2003, and arrived at the dealer in April 2006.

I ordered a 1996 AFG on December 15, 1490. Then they had to discover the new world...invent electricity...found the company...etc....

I ordered my first 1996 AFG on 1/17/06 and it arrived on 3/24/06. Not bad!

John, it'll be worth the wait! My 381/6 BBR is a fabulous guitar.

I ordered a 360/12VP BBR on Nov 8, 2005, and a 1996 AFG on January 23 - Both from Pick of der Ricks. I wonder which will show up first???
