Has anyone else ordered their Blueburst yet?
First off, it's my first post here, just wanted to say hi to everyone! I'm John, 19, and I own a 330FG, 370/12BB, and a 4003JG.
I ordered my Blueburst as soon as they came avilable from The Music Connection, a 350v63!
Has anyone else put in their order for one yet?

I wish I could say I have--as many of you know, I have been dreaming of a Blueburst Ric for the last couple of years (here's the link to my homepage, with the watercolor I painted in 2003: www.melibeemusic.com )! But all of a sudden life is taking a dramatic change in my family, as my husband is making the big transition.... He has quit his job as a postal clerk and his last day of work is Feb. 2. He has been working far too much and has decided he wants to spend more time with the family and less time working...so...he will be pursuing his dreams as a full time coin dealer and entrepreneur, as our home business has grown too big to handle on a part-time only basis! This is the realization of a dream for him, and will hopefully allow him more time to be the dad and husband that he wants to be, although he is a bit apprehensive about how our finances will be once we break ties with his predictable paycheck coming in every two weeks, and the loss of his considerable retirement and health-insurance benefits. Yet he knows how very much I want a Blueburst, and I have told him that I would even be willing to sell a couple of my "Rickenbabies" to finance such a purchase....as we gain confidence about making it out "on our own" I hope to put my order in for my dream guitar!

Though we have never met nor corresponded before all the best in your ventures, Melissa. I admire those who strike out on their own and decide what they want out of their life and for their family, Go for it! There is a BB in your future and more!

My 360/12 should have been ordered in mid to late December 2003, since the MB COY was to have been completed then, and I ordered it with that in mind. They apparently have 3 on order, mine being the first. When I inquired in July of last year, I was told it should be coming in "any time now." Oh well, just make it a nice one, please, and I'll be happy.
Of course, it could be like the 4003s8 I ordered, which got lost in their warehouse for months, only to appear a week after the one I ended up buying from Mike Parks showed up...
Not placing any blame, just stating that I'm still waiting on my last order. I'm the last person that should be complaining about waiting for stuff, given the speed of my own production (which is finally finished, ten years later!).
