Great! Just email them and I will be drooling all over the keyboard looking at that V68! I noticed the 4005 has been absent lately.....

Well, I only gigged the 4005 because I had to! But I must say, it has been a bit neglected lately. Between the v68 and my 75th Anniversary 330, could you blame me? Image

Wow!

You play bass on that Anny 330, John?

I hope you adjusted the truss rods.

Even still, I'd stick to flatwounds if I were you, or risk voiding the warranty!

Will, I see no reason NOT to get creative with the photography.

I think a nice Rick leaning up against a bijoona in the relicked back yard could be a good candidate for the calendar!

Hey, Paul, glad to see you're back, and presumably in one piece, minus the stones! Image

With so many beautiful Rick pictures to consider ---- how are you going to make the selection ?? Or is the solution a calendar with 36 or 48 months, so that a good sampling of beautiful Ricks get displayed ?

Gotcher pics, JB...

Richard, last year there were not a whole lot of choices...this year is a bit better, plus I've got a lot of other stuff I've been saving...

DEADLINE MIDNIGHT TONIGHT EST!

I'm looking forward to getting a couple of these Ric calendars..... I know they will much better than these "business" calendars we get at our offices with boring industrial pictures of this or that or "scenery" pictures from foreign countries.
Regards - Rich F.
P.S. Paul -- glad to see you are back on your feet and recovering.

Last year I had suggested a page-a-day Rickencalendar, but I think the thought was a bit overwhelming for Paul! But perhaps the idea would work if he got a lot of good pictures from people this year! Image

Not that he doesn't have plenty to do already, what with having a family, and all those refins to do and acoustics to build, and a regular job besides, LOL! Paul, I still don't know how you manage to do all that and still spend so much time here! Image I'm glad you're up and posting, though!

Paul, would it be prudent for me to give the photographer's name? It wasn't me.

John: I do not give photographer's credits on the pages; ownership is credited, along with a brief description of the instrument.
