The Rick is a 650C with gold guard and TRC, also higains with toaster covers. The one leaning against the amp is my home-made guitar.

Gary, since you are local you are welcome to come look and play them anytime you want.

Hey! Thanks Ken, a very kind offer!

The KJ model looks great in the photo. At first glance I thought it was a PRS. Very nice.

Maybe the next time Model Citizen, (Steve), is tearing somewhere up we can get together. Like to hear his new GL.

Hey Ken, any chance you could send me an upclose pic of your 650? I'm thinking about doing the same to mine.

Don, that post is COOL.

Alright, Alisha just gave me a jpeg lesson, so here goes...

That is the "J Dog" Rick 12 at the first Full Liquor Dancers gig, before we added the bari sax player. It's a charity fundraiser at this trendy yuppie restaurant in Tampa (Hyde Park neighborhood) I would never otherwise be at. I believe someone else recently mentioned this guitar in another thread... Apparently I am some sort of rock god now, if people are studying my guitars!

Notice the Britney-style headset. This was necessary with all the fancy footwork required to play the bass pedals. Never again will I do a gig in that fashion. All three suffered, voice, guitar, and bass parts.

This is from a jam that I took part in yesterday. My friend Randy has his 650C JG and I'm using a 360 LH MG. Note the bass player's killer axe.

I would have liked being there to hear you pickin'and a grinnin'.We didn't get the chance at the 75th Party, but there's always next year.
