It still surprises me when RIC dealers give a delivery date. Most of the dealers I work with will never hazard a guess.

Ken: I cannot believe the grain on that 340 Aquaglo. Almost a spontaneous combustion.
Life, as with music, often requires one to let go of the melody and listen to the rhythm

I haven't seen a c63 for a while, but I did just see and play a brand new '08 FG 330 at a music store in New Orleans. It was not at all dark around the edges, but more a medium shade of red (completely translucent). It was also medium rare (pink in the middle). It played great, but not my favorite FG. Some of the AFGs I've seen lately were very dark around the edge, and pretty much ambered maple in the middle (all blended beautifully...no clown glo anywhere to be seen).

You were in New Orleans??? Why didn't you tell me? I would have loved to show you my trust Ric 12. :D

What store was it, by the way?

I have a feeling that any day now, there is going to be a huge flood of Fireglo instruments into the market since it seems like it's all been JG and MG with few others.

And the wait goes on. NCM got in two C63 guitars this month. I was #4 on their list. So I guess I'm now at #2...

I'm not sure who the owner is. I found it on the inner net.

Either RIC hasn't shipped any of these out in awhile, or they are sending a lot to the same people
