Sean, Limelight in Rochester Hills also sells Ricks (when they can get them).

They are listed as one of the stores that's been shipped to I believe. I want them at Professional Guitar, cause they would fit the name. It's a nice little store and Ray from Oscillating Fan Club works there and is a Ric player and fanatic. Plus it's right down the street and the owner is really cool. Cynical as all heck after dealing with Epi and Fender and Gibson.

I haven't been in Professional Guitars in years. I am not sure if the original owners are still there.

The owner now is the second owner I believe, Pat. John is long gone and the current owner ship is exceptionally more,well. professional, and the place has been fixed up, remodeled and pat is awesome, if cynical, like me. As you turn of Woodward onto 9 mile you are met with a 1 story store front window full of guitars. Ray from the Oscillating fan Club is the counter dude and plays a Ric onstage. He tells me his friend just got a Ric 620 from MotorCity, so that must be one that shipped.

sorry bout all the spelling errors, it's early for a musician.....

Buckle your seat belts boys and girls. It looks like a bunch of them just shipped from the factory!!!

...and my toes! Thanksgiving may have a real substantive reason to celebrate this year.

I think JimK's Ric-to-be has become one of the most famous Rics of all time.

Give the man his own signature model! They could call it the JimK 360/12 Wait4eva.
The pick guard would feature the silhouette of a carrott being dangled from a string.

I'll certainly be toasting your new arrival when it arrives Jim!

Famous Ricks of all time! (wiping my eyes)

Jim, I assume that one of the dealers receiving a 360/12 was your preferred dealer? I'm still waiting for mine to show up on the list...I believe I'm first in line.

I'm looking for Rhoads' Music to show up. I have no idea when that's going to happen. Jim Rhoads quoted me such a great price, that I decided I'd better pull the trigger. I'm up to checking that shipping list about three times a day now; first thing in the morning (useless because CA is in the Pacific Time Zone, and Kansas is in the Central Time Zone, 2 hrs ahead) then again at noon, and last late at night. Yeah, those 360/12s are flyin' out the door! It could be "Any day now..."

haha, yes. Perhaps the most famous hypothetical-never-actually-seen-yet Ric of all time!

Hope yours is in the batch, Jim. We're all waiting for the horray thread!
