Fine lumber you've got there, David. Welcome back!

I need to get some updated pictures. It has Hipshot Utralites and a Hipshot A bridge on it now. The Grovers were shot -- couldn't hold tuning for half a song. It came to me with the bound headstock. It was done reasonably well in this case. I like the look and I can't think of a reason any decent luthier type couldn't do it to yours.

Check out the skunk stripe on this one: http://www.rickresource.com/rrp/chrisbrubeck.html

Same story with my former July '73 4001; a friend of mine has it now.

Here's the latest! I've been meaning to get a JG. I guess this will do!

No strings, no nut grooves, no tuner keys... ?????

... and phony as a three-dollar bill.

It ain't a real RIC TRC, but it is authorized! It's the Rick 325 from the Beatles set of Rock Band!

Hahaha, that explains it! I wondered what was up. Kevin, that's a good one!

But ya fake-play those "guitars"!

Actually, I'm impressed that RB bothered with that much detail.

Sorry! I couldn't resist!

We bought the game for my son Daniel for his B-day. It's a lot of fun and I love seeing Paul's Rick in the videos.

But ya fake-play those "guitars"!

That would be consistant with how I play my basses too!

That would explain all the gumminess from removed labels on the fretboard of the V I got from ya!

Paint by numbers??? Nope, play by colors!

You're on to me!
