you guys noticed the headstock? no skunkstripe down the middle of the back of the neck
this guitar definitely belongs in the fantasy reissue thread, and i hope the start of a few more mashups

need another 12 string !!

I noticed that to, which reinforces my thinking of a 660/12 neck blank (note correct spelling this time!
).

Historically, RIC's new releases have been revealed just prior to NAMM.

Stunning! I don't know whether to be elated at the launch of what could be the perfect combination of Ric 360 features, or sad that my 360V64-6 and Rose Morris 1997 Reissue Rics have both just tumbled in value!

Why would they? This really is a different model with it's own set of (fabulous) features.

And folks will be interested to know that JH posted on the Ric Company Forum that this 1993 Plus is not a limited run model, but it will continue in production, remain in the line, as long as there is interest !

I just think that the release of this model worldwide will adversely affect demand for
all pre-owned Rose Morris reissues (which lacked the X-bracing) and double-bound 360 models (with the possible exception of the 360C63-12) - unless the new ones are hugely over-priced.
I have already resigned myself to having to add one to my collection, come what may - not that its a big chore! Well done, John, Ben & Co.
