Good Idea JB!

Maybe a pickguard and vintage style tailpeice as well. And Toaters. It would be like that '68 prototype.

Thanks, Angelo! You do know that Joey and I got our Rubys on the same day? I was looking at the finish yesterday under the light of a single bare 100 watt incandescent light bulb and the finish has the most amazing 3D depth with this sparkly iridescence to it that moves around as you change your perspective on the paint. Pretty trippy.

Go for it Ange! A Ruby Rickenbacker is definitely a guy's jewel! I'm sure Rickenbacker loving ladies wouldn't mind it either.

As a matter of fact, I have been pretty much. We have a bunch of new songs to learn for the band.
