While we're at it, here are my Ricks (L to R):
350v63 with RIC strap and gold Pickguardian pickguards and replacement RIC TRC
1980 360 with painted pickguards and TRC (yes, it really is a darker than usual ruby red)
620/12 with black-cream-black Pickguardian pickguards and replacement RIC TRC
360 which is actually a refinished RIC Tuxedo
Now I just gotta get me one of them beautiful Beatles drumheads!

Daniel, in regards to the Python strap,it was a very generous gift from my good friend,fellow forumite and Very Almosts founding member Darren Trott! He found it in a guitar shop whilst on holiday in Hawaii with his wife Robyn! It compliments the 350 "Liverpool" beautifully!
And to Darren i am eternally gratefull!
Now for a Hofner bass!!......maybe not! Andrea would kill me!!

- The fret markers were just small dots so I modified them with black nail polish

Very nice! Interesting how the wood had pretty good grain underneath the opaque white finish.
If it were mine, it would be headed out to P.W. for some non-yellowing white!

I was wondering about the fret markers, that's why I wanted more pictures.
I also think the maple fretboard is loverly!
I would love to have a bright white (non-yellowing) BT guitar, if there is such a thing, but I would feel guilty getting mine painted.
