I've got Ric humbuckers in my 360

Oooh! That is very tempting to me! But I also like the sound of the Hi-Gains too. So as of the present, no humbuckers in my 360. BTW, nice looking lefty mapleglo 360!

Ellen, you should try to get to a Ric Confluence near you and get a chance to a/b some different Rics, on the same amp and effects pedals, with the different pick-ups, so you can really discern the tonal variations. Of course be forewarned that these Confluences have also been identified as contagious sites for outbreaks of RAS .....

There's talk floating around, about a Wisconsin confluence next year. I fully intend to attend it. I'd even attend a Chicago area one, but as far as I know, there's been no talk about one being in the cards.

I finally took the time to take some pics and figure out how to post them here ...

Ooh, that's nice!

Now, if only I could get one of those with a slightly longer neck and a few less strings...

Now that's a model that needs some reissuin'!

Your 380L looks soooo nice!!!

Well I've decided its not for me, and I have listed it on the bay.

I still have a Ric bass, so I'm still part of the ric club

Here's a new listing, but no Piezo.

Here's one with the Piezo.

Hard to find.

Best,

Craig Witty is sellng this one, one of at least two he had, the other one I purchased some years ago, great guitar !

Yea X,

That Piezo option makes this an amazing guitar with the sound variations.

Wish I had some extra $$ to grab this as a back-up to mine.
