Just double checking, is that a "Larado"? They are all maple, correct?

That thing is giving me RAS!

I love this thread! Great pics!

That's right, a Laredo (all maple & chrome hardware).

That's a striking photo,Jeff,great composition with all that black background,and the ruby Ric against it.
Sepp,that collection of yours is just too fab. My favorite is still the one-off 4004. Wow.

Like Jeff's 4004 Ruby, I held Sepp's one off 4004 first!

Aw come on, Joey. I'll bet someone in the RIC factory held 'em before you...

You can't be first, but you could be next.

Yeah, that has to be a first, a new distinctive Ruby playing at the site of what looks like a log-cabin or something from that era ?
