Thanks guys!

I appreciate it!


If anybody wants one (or a similar one--different colors etc), PM me--I can build another quite easily.

And you've got that '67 decor down pat, too.
Thanks Paul! You've got a mighty nice Ric Coffee table too, IIRC! Fireglo even. :)

The place is acutally my friend's pad. He's a design architect etc, and way into mid century modern furniture, the rest of the house is pretty wild.

+1....I have no idea how long it took you to make it, but you might consider marketing them....it would certainly help you put some more "cookies" in the "New RIC" jar.... :wink:

You might have to worry about tunnelling, though. :mrgreen:

That's a really nice piece that is also functional. You have your guitar with you in the living room at all times. No worries about falling out of a stand!

Nice, Collin! Since you sold the 365, what's going in its place?

Thanks Jake.

I've been keeping the RoMo 1998 in it. I figure I shouldn't be hanging that one by the neck anyways---and it's not my daily player. I recently picked up a 1997 RI to play on more often (and gig if needed...)
