That's a cool idea. Probably more of a PITA than an Ampeg, but cool nonetheless.

Lefty but with strings up-side-down. So you can play any righty then just by flipping it over.

Thanks! It's a pleasure to play (especially now with the RIHS), and in pretty good condition for 38+ years old.

Well, it's bigger than an SVT but probably not any heavier!

Drummer sooo serious.

Dick Dale plays like that,has totally different sound ,cool paint job too.

Here are some of me playing various Rics.....along time ago mind you.....sorry about the hair.......o and the clothes.....o and the legs......just try to look at the guitars......

My old 1967 330 JG......loved this guitar.....stupid me sold it to get a Les Paul.....which I had to sell in the UK to eat.....but that's another story....
My first 325V59 JG ....... don't remember the year but there was a problem with the neck...major warp and the truss rod was snapped in the middle....took it back and got my 350 JG back that I traded for it in the first place.....oh please just look at the guitar and not me!!!!! Scary!!!!
My first Ric was this brand new 350 JG.....I think it was a 1990....great guitar.......still the hair days.......jamming at a cottage in Ontario around 1991?
Demo recording with a 1991 360V64 12 FG........nice pony tail I must say! Great guitar.......but my playing style at the time didn't have much use for it really........

Jeff cool shots! thanks for posting. We all have 'styles' from the past we'd rather forget about... but what is with the legs in the second shot - they look sorta purple? Were you stomping grapes to make wine or just bad circulation?

It was making wine with poor circulation while playing the V59.......

figured it was something like that.

From the last show at Larimer Lounge, on a (ugh) Tuesday. We pulled in 26 heads out of the total 80-ish (they actually make you keep track of which band brings which people, by way of their ticket system) and got a great response from the whole audience, so they're having us back to open a couple of Saturday shows--May 7th and June 18th. Denverites, hit me up if you want to come, and we'll make it happen.

First is from show #1 of a doubleheader we did last Saturday in Clarksville.

Show #2 is from Nashville down the road.
