Thanks for posting all of that, Paul. Its a very cool glimpse into your methods and your shop. It also gives my own 75th 4003 that much more meaning to me.

Geeeez, I think my hubby has lost his marbles.... He appears to be affected by a strange attack of Ric madness beyond reason....

(rolling eyes.....)

I guess that you didn't realize that he would become afflicted with such a bad case of RAS when you brought him out to Santa Ana. Image

I think it was Santa Ana that sealed the deal. Marc saw so many normal people there with lots of Rick Fever.

Well, he thinks we're normal. Shhhhh...

I think Marc is suffering from a rare and as yet, untreatable strain of the virus - BRAS.

Breitsprecher Rickenbacker Aquisition Syndrome.

Apparently it only affects Wisconsin males who reside in the Northern Minnesota area on the shores of Lake Superior who spend lots of time (for various reasons) perusing ebay.

It's untreatable because to date, nobody has offered themselves up to researchers for analysis. Seems they are happy to put up with the affliction...... Image

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

It's not just Rics, it's GEAR!!!!!

....He just went to a garage sale this morning, and bought me a small PA system with all the speakers, cables, monitor, and a microphone for $100!!!!

I just set it up and it sounds GREAT! He's nuts, but he knows a deal when he sees one, LOL! Image

Perhaps he should start up another enterprise... Wheelin' and Dealin' Inc. Image

Paul, wouldn't it also be possible to paint those truss rod covers black instead of gold? And if so, do you think J.H. would let you run off some black ones to be shipped back to RIC for purchase on the trade-in program? I'd love one for the jetglo 4003 I'm getting next year.

Seems like Anniversary Rick deliveries have dwindled. How many here have gotten their 360s and how many are waiting?

Just looking forward to getting my 4003!
