That's a handsome formation, & a very relaxing photo!

A Rick for lead? And they said it couldn't be done.

Beautiful guitars and all with toasters I see. I love them all.

Gorgeous Ric pics as usual, Paul!

The cresting wave is one of the prettiest guitar shapes there is.... and I find that my 615 is one of the most tonally versatile Rics in my arsenal.

I'd love to hear some of that Rickensurf music--sounds waaaaay cool!

Surf's up in Paul's yard! Great collection of baby Rics.

(missing my Atlantis now)

Excellent use of the deck, Paul! The 625 looks magnificent!

Like Dean, for me the Cresting Wave comes in a close second to the 325/350 body style.

Congrats on a great family.... and pics, too!!

I seem to love all Rickenbackers but it seems that I've always kept a number of cresting wave models. Right now, I've got a '60 420, two '61 450s, '61 460, '62 625, '63 625, '64 615, '64 450/12 and a '93 650D. Also have a couple of their older brothers, '57 Combo 450s with transitional cuts. I guess they're addicting!

Your latest acquisition is in superb condition, Paul. Nice find mate!

I'm a little late chiming in, but great pic Paul! Everything looks great!

Keep riding those waves Paul. That '67 is outstanding.

Maybe it's time we started a cresting wave appreciation thread.

Funny thing about those pics, JDog...

I had all 4 of these on stands in my living room...still in my bathrobe...carried them downstairs and onto the deck. Only had the Sony point 'n' shoot, but it is an 8MP, so I set it on BIG (5MB) and cracked off ten shots as quick as I could take 'em.

When I got to my office and downloaded the chip, I had five nice shots. Nice camera and good fortune in this case.

I will do a poster...nothing but a title and legal. The guitars are really nice visually, I think.
