That's Ruby Eddie. Nice though, it's been around the eBay loop a couple of times with no BIN takers.

yeah, but he's changed tack now and started a regular auction with low opening price....if you can put up without full width inlays and 21 frets (not my cup o' tea but each to their own), it could clearly end up at a bargain price for an OS..

Oi! How did I miss to spot that one! Thanks, Eddie... I'll follow that one closely - who knows, maybe a final sniper kill the last second!k43rover wrote:..you should treat yourself to this one...and you most likely won't need to pay the crazy sort of price charged by CME..

..well I'll leave you guys to fight it out as the 24 frets don't do it for me...may the best man (or sheila) win!

Re: 330S in Tobaccoglo 2012 - Limited Run
Not for me either Eddie. I'm happy with 21 or 24 frets, but I aleady have an x-braced 1981 Ruby 370WB CB which is a real sweety.

Nice!!


..and what is that I spy..... is that...surely it can't be....shock....splutter...CHECKER BINDING



Re: 330S in Tobaccoglo 2012 - Limited Run
CB? Sure is! 

Re: 330S in Tobaccoglo 2012 - Limited Run
That's a nice feature....was that a factory special order from new...or retrofit?godber wrote:CB? Sure is!
Re: 330S in Tobaccoglo 2012 - Limited Run
Factory special order Eddie. The optional extras were pretty cool back then. It's actually a really nice guitar to play, with a good weight, slim neck and plays as easy as a six string.
Re: 330S in Tobaccoglo 2012 - Limited Run
..that's cool...now that the backlog is way down, the factory should have plenty of time to again process special orders/options like this. Bringing back the OS as a special order should be top of that list!godber wrote:Factory special order Eddie. The optional extras were pretty cool back then.

It does my heart good to see models such as this one being made these days. 11 out of 10 RIC!
Life, as with music, often requires one to let go of the melody and listen to the rhythm
