Ricks I Have Loved....And Sold Like An Idiot!
Moderators: rickenbrother, ajish4
Sold:
1959 345 FG
1992 350 JG
1998 360 FG
Still have:
2002 370/12 MG VP
2004 370 FG VP
The 345 had a single-truss rod neck that was warped, and deemed beyond repair in 1989 by the top guitar tech in my city. The guitar was in the family for 40 years, but seldom played. Dad preferred his classical guitar, and I only used the 345 for the first couple of years of playing guitar, before moving on to better ones. It was worthless from a player's standpoint, and only valuable as a "vintage" instrument. I hated the Kaufmann vibrola and the roller saddles on the bridge too. My 370 is a far superior guitar to the old Capris. I did like the Capri body shape, though. If it didn't have the neck issues, I would have bought a fixed tailpiece and converted it to a 340. My other two sold Ricks were made redundant by the 370 also.

There is no reason to ever be bored.
...why yes, I suppose I do have a double bound guitar fetish...
