Wow
That's a great price. Is it a 350 or a 325? It's hard to tell

Nice catch!
Looks more like a mapleGlo 320 to me, what year have we got here?

Go to sleep and get better, Paul. We'll just talk amongst ourselves for a while.
Great looking guitar, BTW!!

Niiicce 320, Paul, and you certainly can't beat the price!

Paul: Super deal! I got lucky about ten years ago and spotted a newspaper ad for an '80 320 BG (near mint). The guy said, "It's a 320 so I guess you can have it for $320". The price was right. I love the two '80 Rick guitars I've got (the other is a 620/12 FG) because they both came with factory nickel Kluson tuners. I also like the older black tolex cases.

I don't know the year because I go to pick it up tomorrow and I'm a bit superstitious...I'll post as soon as it is in my living room.

Paul, are you sure it was the flu? Jonesing for another Ric produces very similar symptoms...

I've Jones after a short scale since Early Days, so maybe you're right.
I'll be modding this one, BTW.

Damn...now I'm startin' to feel the shakes and muscle pains too...

Yea, I think it's contagious! Damn those short scale Ricks. Although I must admit, I like being Ricksick. Whew, feeling a little woozy, I've got to go lie down now and get some rest.

Paul, I forgot to ask, what type of mods will you be doing on that newly acquired 320? Will you be posting progress photos? Let's hope so, I'd love to see what you're going to do.
