Come to think of it...I can't remember seeing a '70s Ric with a stock vibrato unit. 325's seemed to disappear...all you see are 320's.

And...a '70s F guitar? Anone with pics?

I think '68 saw the end of production on these. I think.

We've seen a few guitars from this period that are still very 60's, and as it was a quiet period for the factory at the time I'm sure you could have probably got practically anything that was on the list.

Now, how many of the 390 Acoustic's went out the door at nearly $950 each is another thing entirely...

Adjusted for inflation, that's $5,062.77 in 2009 dollars...

I think just because it was on the list does not necessarily mean that anyone ordered that particular item, or that RIC manufactured that item. But it would be interesting to know the production of that year - what was made and how many of them.
