Wow -- those Tiger stripes are beautiful 8) .... Better watch out or the PETA people will mistakenly protest thinking you've got a tiger skin draped on your guitar :roll: :wink:

Kenny,

That is a neat looking color on your '67 4005, is it black/green or just a trick of the light?

Just the color I have had in my mind someday for a 350 Liverpool refin. 8)

I found this picture on my computer last night. It's the picture of the 660 AFG they had posted on the Dave's Guitar website that I ended up buying.

I think I said it before but 2008 seems like it was a great year for flame at the Rickenbacker factory!

Wow! A real beauty. The maple back looks nearly identical to my Gibson SJ.
