My 2002 330FG. I don't care if they are the "Sunburst Strat" of Ricks - it's an incredible guitar and has been my main player for almost three years now.

The sticker is partly an homage to Paul Weller, and partly an homage to the person who gifted the guitar for me a few years ago. The amp is a Mesa Maverick - 2x12, Class A, 2 channels, 40 watts - like an AC-30 on steroids.

Oh, and it's not really as clowny as it looks!

Pics always seem to exaggerate the fade on newer FG's.

Nice amp there, JB! Our guitar player/hero plays through a 50 watt model. Great sound.

It may be one of the most common Ricks, but it's a classic.

Yep! You've got it nailed JDog. Pity about the 'non-alcoholic' bit but the breweries are pretty good at turning water into wine..... er, and beer, too!! Image

Whew! Apologies for the camera not rendering red well (as a footnote to that comment, my NEW Olympus just went on the fritz - all red is gone! ARGH!)
