RE: But a Herring isn't red...
They apparently turn red after being smoked.
Their strong odor was used to fool hunting dogs to follow a wrong trail.

I've eaten a lot of smoked herring, being Polish...
They're not red. They're silver.
And brown.

Rats! I think a transluscent FG over silver flake would be kind of... er... flashy!
There's definitely something fishy going on here.
Fun thread.

My bandmate has a pearl white Mosrite with brown (tortoise shell) binding...

Whoa,,,John popped my bubble.

I was hoping for the checker binding. Oh, well.
Ok,, if its a finish, Im not even gonna speculate. But I bet they come with gold guards and TRC's with the RIC 75th Anniversary Logo.

Oh c'mon...Speculate..It's nice to hear the feedback from all of you,the people that actually own and play (or are patiently waiting for) Rick's..
Some of you have pretty creative ideas..
