Cool. I'm on the way right now to get it. The only reason I was asking about the price is because I don't see many of the 320 models and didn't know if they sell for less or more. Thanks guys!

Not sure if I have ever seen a Burgundy 320. Great deal. Get on it before anyone else sees it!

I think that these are the original tuners. Maybe Rotos were on it at one time but I doubt if they were original.

My early '80s 320 had Grovers originally, as does my mid-'80s 360WB. Hence my cocksure comment, which probably should have had a "maybe" in there somewhere...

Maybe...
Anyway, when did RIC start using the vintage tuners marked "RIC DELUXE"? I thought it began in the mid-'80s. The ones on this guitar look fairly new...

I paid $600 for my 320, brand new. in 1982! They're worth $1100 to $1500 now, with an ebay BIN price last week of $2100
So you got a great deal, congrats and I hope you love it as much as I love mine. Hope you have small hands too... once you get used to it you won't go back.

Well, the guitar is great. It is very small though! And dang, those completed listing prices on eBay are pretty high. I've got my eyes on a Rick bass, so I might end up selling this 320 on the bay. Looks like capitalism is grabbing me by the neck!

Give it a chance!!! Short scale guitars are a whole lot of fun once you get used to them!
Plus, you've got a pretty rare and super-cool 320...who needs a bass, they all look the same anyway!

Could be a lot less painful if you skip the 'bay and post it here on RRF first. Maybe you can work a trade here with someone who's taken care of the instrument and who won't chop yours up for parts.
