Paul Wilczynski didn;t believe I was balder than him, and now he will see I was right.

I'm afraid not...
Great pics everyone, but for those who weren't there it'd be cool to know who is who... i already do recognize some people albeit i've never met anybody from this forum in person, but not everybody...

Hey Guys. It was a pleasure meeting all of you. If any of you need anything, I'm the other guy that answers the phone on Saturday at Pick Of The Ricks.

Welcome Darryl. Thanks for introducing yourself although, by now, you are no stranger to many visitors here.

Welcome Darryl! I remember meeting you, although I am sure you met lots of we big graying dudes coming in with armloads of Ricks on Saturday at Pick Of The Ricks!

I have already said on this Forum, and I will say it again, that the next time I need to deal with a Rick dealer for any reason whatsoever, I am coming to YOU guys to spend my money

Thank you so much for hosting all of us this past weekend at MARF II

Did anyone else notice the serious lack of Desert Gold and SeaFoam Green at MARF....now we have to have another one!

All these pics are just totally awe inspiring. I cannot fathom what it must have been like being around all those beautiful instruments! Jeez-o-pete! Thinking about the lousy week I had and seeing all the pics just makes it harder getting over not being there.

Ok, what about the Bottles stories......

Welcome Darryl - good to meet you over the weekend. Thanks again for accommodating all of us, and for all the quick re-ordering/re-shuffling of instruments to get our ricks up on the walls.

I too was hoping to see a DG (but not so much a Sea Green!), so somebody bring one next year! It was great to see other relatively uncommon colors - monty brown, blue boy, blueburst, burgandyglo, etc. I was also impressed with the anatomically-correct vertebrae-glo on the neck of Mark's 4001!

Looks like a good time was had by all. Sorry I couldn't make it.

the next time I need to deal with a Rick dealer for any reason whatsoever, I am coming to YOU guys to spend my money

I would second that. Even though I wasn't there, a note of appreciation from me too.

And in a related note, I have a question. Just out of curiosity did PotR make any money out of this? Were any of their stock on display? Did any attendees buy anything? Thanks.

Edit - OK, I just saw that Jeff Scott bought an acoustic 12.

A few purchases happened and a trade as well.
What Chris did make out of this were good friends and future business contacts. The whole thing was worth it just to see people smile and laugh. Good people, good music, Great Guitars!

Yes, great guitars!
