The only guitars on the REGISTRATION page are a 325c58/JG, the "raining" 370's in FIREGLO and a walnut-looking 1997 navigation "button"...OH....and a natural, late 50's capri....and a little ruby red 4003....

..Or maybe John meant in the menu section?....

It's got to be Blue Burst Reverse (BBR) just like the above pic, unless John's been having us chase red herrings. He wouldn't do that....would he?

I think the reverse means reverse trim?

That is the color I am hoping for. I am debating maybe budgeting for a new 4003 this year or something else. If that color comes up, that makes up my mind.

If black trim is only available on that finish(Speculating totally here to play along) People will be buying them and cannibalizing for parts!

There are 100's of guitars and basses in the registration section, you guys must be going to the wrong place. I didn't see the blueburst in there either (but i got tired after a while and could have missed it if it's there.), but did see a purple burst. that blue burst is nice though, but I still think it's going to be purpleburst. But then again BBR was on the Ric site wasn't it?
