Finally getting what I wanted

Post by brianeharmonjr »

Well, I will soon be receiving what I've been looking for for quite some time, a 330 Blue Boy. After much searching, one finally showed up at Pick of The Ricks last month. I just got my tax check and I'll be sending the balance to Mike Parks. So, this time next week the beauty pictured below will be mine. At last!

She's stunning, Brian. Props to your for scoring your new acquisition! But hey, if it's Pick Of The Ricks, send payment to Chris Clayton! If it's The Rickenbacker Page, no problem. My bad. Play on, pick often, and prosper. Best regards....Goofyfoot.
Play on, pick often, jam with any Rickenbacker, and prosper.

Wow.... I'm with Aitch on that one! For some reason that looks exceptionally beautiful, and normally I really don't even like Blueboy. Congrats! :D

Yes, it was actually Mike at the Ric Page, not Pick of the Ricks.

Thanks for all the kind words, guys. I'm being bitten by the COY bug. I've got a Desert Gold (660/12) and now this Blue Boy. What's next? Maybe something in a nice Blueburst.
