Group Therapy for Ric Owners-In-Waiting

Scotty, that's an old American expression. I just steal all kinds of stuff like that.

I mean "i hope its yours" with the guitar not the phrase.

Jim -- any word from Rhoads Music ?
It's been two whole days and the anxiety is running high on the RRF

Closed for business on Sundays, I assume. I don't know how long delivery to Rhoads Music (Pennsylvania) takes from Santa Ana CA. But suspect it to be in the neighborhood of the better part of a week. My estimate: I probably won't receive any news until the middle of the week, or Friday, April 24 at the latest.

The suspense is killin' me.

Jim, don't worry, you're doing fine. Try not to worry about it.

If it is you, you know what to do, right? Scream like Roger Daltrey did on "Won't Get Fooled Again"!

[jimk]

....maybe so, Jake. Maybe so.

Jim...Heard anything yet? I was in Louisville on business and had a moment to drop into Guitar Emporium....What a wonderful bunch of guys...They had probably 8 or 9 RICs on the wall. One was a 360/6 that had a really nicely flamed top...sort of a poor man's Carl Wilson.

While I was there, the UPS man showed up with a very familiar looking box. Having been one of those checking the "shipped" list, I correctly guessed that it was a FG 360/12. When I mentioned it, they took it out of the box, and let me be the first to open it up. All I can say Jim, is if your FG 360/12 looks anything like this one, you'll be tickled...but it won't be pink. Just another example of the stunning FG coming out of the paint shop. Eric has got this nailed.

BTW, while swapping stories, the guys there had tons of nice things to say about Chris Clayton....and had an interesting story about a VERY, VERY late model MB 330 with VP and a Vintage Case that is stowed away in their basement.

John, check out "Another New Rick Owner" in the guitars forum. Got The Call about 3:00PM local time today.

Does that mean this thread is finished?

[jimk]

Oh, probably not, Kira. I think there are still one or two who are waiting. Isn't there some one in either Toronto, or was it Ottawa, Ontario, Canada still waiting?

[beatlefreak]

I'm still waiting for my 360/12C63.

I'd love to hear that one whiling away the 2 (or 3) more days until the Awaited One arrives. So tell us a story, Uncle John.

You want a story, eh? I'll tell you one

One day, I went to the store, and I got some soymilk. The end.

And then he got sick and invented "soymilk burst" the new COY
