As much as I'm not a huge fan of BBR, that is a classic, Tony. Congratulations!

However, I'd send it back..... the USA sticker is skewiff!! Image

Actually - the sticker is on straight - It's the porch that's crooked

I don't dig BBR, but I love the guitar. That wood is nicer than any 660 I've seen come out of the factory for a long while. Nice get!!

Fantastic Blueburst! It keeps the blue even in the center on both sides. That really looks nice.

I agree, beautiful grain.

J. Oliver - I've noticed the same thing. The newer 660s that I've seen (admittedly only a small fraction of what's come out of the factory) don't seem as figured as earlier models. Is flamed maple harder to come by these days, or gotten terribly expensive?

Don't let any BBR naysayers influence you at all ... it's as awesome-looking as any other Ric on the planet. Really sweet ... WOW !!
