Acoustic Ric

Post by eric_b »

Don't see this too often. Right at the beginning in the on stage shot, and right at the very end of the vid on stage, Carol (from the band Bettie Serveert) is playing an acoustic Ric. Pretty cool.

That's not an acoustic in the live shot. It's her standard electric (which I believe is a 430).

Not a 430 ... note the triangle inlays as well as the R tailpiece, features not present on a 430; it's probably a 620.

I meant 620. I read the '75 catalog wrong.
