White finishes are not super rare but not as prevelent as Jetglo, Fireglo, or Mapleglo. Only the white/black with white painted fretboard is rare.

Oh course it is rarer in the first years it was introduced which according to the timeline on Mike Park's site is 1970. I have an '87 and '89 both were actually cheaper that my other RICs and both will probably end up being refin'd some other color (Sorry Jaymi). Neither one is the cleanest, something about the paint or the way they were treated. The paint on both is peeling not just dinged up.

Jeffrey, that should be the correct spelling (well Hebrew is my first language you know)... here's what it looks like (right to left of course!):

I haven't read Hebrew since my school days back in the '60s.

Have you tried the Kosher beer "He'Brew - The Chosen Beer" ?!!

The white finishes are real scarce in the very early days. How many have you seen with the toaster/checkered binding? A cool 73 sold on E bay last year. That,s the only one I,ve ever seen.

Good work, Jaymi! I see that she has your hair.

Actually , Kathryn and Elizabeth are the names of my two English nieces, will your Union Jack be in the nursery?

I can take a picture of her with the flag (and the bass when it is finished) if you like, mate!!

She could have been named Paula Christina in honor of Paul McCartney and Chris Squire! Very cute natural finish!
