What do you think - A Ric in each annual color

I think it's interesting how some models really lend themselves to certain colors -

I know the 650 is a great guitar, but it's not high on my list at this point - I think I should have a 360, 620 or a 660 (i.e. the classics) before I move into the newer models.

I'm leaning towards ordering a 360/12 in BBR and keeping my eyes open for a 660/12 in burgundyglo.

Here's a 360-12 Sea Green, 350V63-6 Desert Gold, 660-6 Burgundyglo (with white trim), 330-6 Montezuma Brown, 4003 Blue Boy. Just missing a Blue Burst.

Now, that's exactly what I'm talking about, Mike!

Just curious why you went with the white trim on the 660 - I always thought the gold with the burgundyglo was striking...

I've never been a fan of gold with solid colours Tony. OK, before you say it, Burgundyglo is translucent, I just prefer white with the check/white binding, gold trim with Montezuma Brown or Fireglo I don't mind.

Then you'll have to get all the standard colors.

Anybody seen a BBR 620 yet?

twangs · Post by **twangs** » Tue Nov 08, 2005 8:43 am

I understand Mike - I also think the Fireglo and Montezuma Brown looks great with the gold...

Dan - you're the second person to suggest I get the standard colors too - I guess I need to get another job...

A great review of the past five years Mike. Terrific photo.

Then all the discontinued colours...
Turquoise, Azureglo, Red, White, Silver, Ruby and the Walnut finish.
Two extra jobs Tony!

Ugg - Maybe I need to start playing the Lottery

I'd sure like to get more myself. A 350v63 in midnight blue but I'm not that good of a guitar player yet. Taking lessons though. (I have a blueburst 620 reserved.)
