I think John replied to the wrong thread again...

You know, I really don't think it's me, because I hadn't even read this thread previously. It's gotta be something to do with editing messages after they've been posted.

Aha, The Twilight Zone Effect!

Jim, if you e-mail me the pics (address in profile) I will shrink them for you and post them in this thread.

I,m thinking of selling my casino and getting a 12 string... honestly because of that clip posted in the "360WB" thread in the guitars in general forum.

All I gotta do is get a couple gigs and make up the extra dough!

Yippie!
It's here.... my 360 12 c63! It was due Friday, but UPS in New Jersey re-routed it and it was scheduled for delivery today. However, I contacted my local UPS hub and told them I wouldn't be home today until late and told them DO NOT leave it on my front porch in this blazing Kentucky heat... besides someone could steal it and who knows how long I'd have to wait for another. Yes, I lucked into to it since I checked Pick of the Ricks in mid May and put it on lay away. Chris at Pick told me about 16 people inquired about it since it had been on hold for about a month. I told him, too bad... I have first dibs! ha ha ha The action is right on and now I must purchase a real VOX tube amp to hear the full effect. The Valvetronix just doesn't do the trick. I'll take the guitar to Mom's in Louisville later this month and plug into all 5 VOX amps Howard has in his store. I'll post a pic of the guitar on this site sometime this weekend.

Congrats on your new guitar Gary. You're not joking about that heat either...freakin' miserable. Where are you from? I go to Mom's all the time. Howard and I are good friends. As a matter of fact, he went to the Stones concert at Churchill Downs with me.

I have 5 VOX amps in my store????? ImageImage

Hearty congratulations, Gary. I don't have a c63 but from what what I hear they are awesome things to play! Hopefully I'll get my hands on one (well..... briefly, anyway) at SoCal '07.

BTW..... I do have a Vox AC30CC1........ Image

Congrats, Gary. I'm still waiting on mine from NCM. It's just a year now since I put a deposit on it.

Well done Gary.
The 360/12c63 has the nicest neck of any Rick I've ever played - wish I could get a 6-string version.

Congrats Gary. I'm totally in love with mine. I'd still be sleeping with it in the bed next to me, but there was that unfortunate incident when my wife woke up one morning hanging from a guitar hanger in my music room....

Thank you all for the congrats. I lucked into finding this 06 mint model and glad I made the purchase. Since I'm electronically challenged, I'm having trouble getting the pics to this site, but you guys know what they look like anyway! Mine suits me fine! popjpeg161890

Congrats, Gary! If you want, e-mail me the pics, and I'll 'fix' and post them here in the thread.
