That dark green V64 is stunning! I got to buy me a spare one and send it to Paul!

And my suit thing stems from the fact that I work too bloody late and Interpol are the coolest band of all time

Well, I already own the RIC of my dreams - a 360/12MG signed by McGuinn and Kantner:

But, as previously mentioned, the RIC of my fantasies would be a medium scale 4005 and a 360/12 with a 1 3/4" neck.[/color]

There is at least one medium scale 4005, it is pictured in the Smith book on page 208; not only that but it is an 8 string 4005 with a potato headstock!

What's the issue with fennel fretboards, when axehugger is making furry guitar stands?

Our hobby is in danger of being taken over by the "Cabbage Patch Doll/stuffed animals on the rear shelf of the Camry" set.

Where's the Four Horsemen when we need 'em?

So when do you reckon someone will release the 'fluffy dice' tuner that you can attach to your headstock? :D

I think Gibson will reveal that one shortly to go along with their auto-tuning keys.

You mean "Magic wand" Ricky?!?! :D

a '65 vintage 360/12, fireglow, with a nice butterscotch to it, Carl Wilson flame, toasters, Tom Petty neck with black micarta nut, 12 saddle bridge.

How does that sound?? :D

That green 360 is class looking 8)

Anyway, i too already own my fav/dream Ricks ,360/12v64 and v64 6 string in Fireglo
But i always want what i don't have, so, that would be a 381 6 and a 1997, in Fireglo of course :)

I just love the way a 360 O.S or v64 looks 8)
