Random NAMM musings.....

The RIC booth sparkled like a jewelry store window. What an absolutely impressive display.

80+ percent of the people at NAMM were wearing black. Add matching masks, hats, and capes and you'd have a Guinness world record Zorro convention.

No matter how old you get, the rock and roll dream never dies.

You can put 4 percent beef in a patty and sell it for 8 bucks as a hamburger.

Ernie Ball had a couple of new Music Man Sabre basses. Tascam introduced a 32 track portastudio. The amount of free stuff appears to have shrunk dramatically over the last couple of years.

Overheard walking past the Clarion hotel: "Valet parking is now $100!" (that's over 12 NAMMburgers!)
It's a Byrd, it's a playin'..........

Well that's a blast from the past, Brian - nice find! I remember that one well. Vintage Can-Con :lol:

Anyways, back to the subject...wish I were at NAMM right now, if only for the burgers. But the MC 350 looks great as well!

(Did Campbell even play a Hamer guitar? I sure would like to see an MC Hamer)

Any chance we will ever see a revival of the Ric 325 C64 (or C58) Lennon 12 string? On my wish list!!!

You'll have to get in line, as there's been one forming for it.
JETGLO should officially be renamed JETGLO ROCKS! :-)

So is the MC350 a DEFINITE addition to the product line?

Or, is it a Limited Edition special order?

Is there any pricing information?

Are there FG and JG models available?

Can they be ordered through our favorite dealer TODAY?

No real plans for the guitar have been made yet.

+1. Thanks for the update, Joey. I know of a few guitarists who'd take to it straight away if it became a reality...

Stuart, since you've played/held MC's original, let me ask a question I've been wondering since I saw it on the Take The Highway VHS: Does it have a square neck heel?

I'm in the hypothetical long line....might order two. . . Jetglo is a definite must, and Ruby or MID, if available. :)
There is no reason to ever be bored.

...why yes, I suppose I do have a double bound guitar fetish...

"Uh, I like the double bounds. . . ."
