Very nice choice for a first Ric! Welcome to the forum.

Are you in the Napa Valley by any chance? There could be a Nor Cal Ric jam coming in the spring. :D

Gorgeous guitar. Really nice.

But what's a 360VP? I had to look it up at the Ric site and they don't even have that listed.

Yes. Vintage pickups.

I don't have it in my sweaty hands yet, it is in transit. I should have it early this coming week. Just thought I'd post a pic of it while I wait, and do some browsing of the forum. Nice place!

I've been a Telecaster guy for a few years, and I've always wanted to try a Ric. Love the sound!

Hi Roger, and welcome to the RRF. Yeah, you're going to love the sound. Different than a Tele, for sure, but still lots of twang.
