As held by the talented Mr. X, here is a nice '73 with 60's trim. The finish is a bit rough but it plays and sounds great.

Not a bass but still a Rick.

Ted do you know the story on the 360/12 with the American flag motif?

No, I don't. It has been there a while. I am not even sure it is for sale.

There were two more 360s hiding in a dark corner. They both have BT.

Thanks Ted,

It is very "different" for a Ric in a number of respects. I was just curious about it's pedigree and the obvious non-standard pickup modifications

I wondered about the pickups myself. I could probably find out for you if you really want to know.

No that's OK. You don't need to go to any bother on my account. I was just curious if you knew the answer offhand, that's all.

Crikey!! Just love the 'Wall-o-Ricks'!! Seems like a vist to CME is a must when I hit Chicago early October. Anybody offering to be a tour guide? Image

Thanks, Ted - very kind of you indeed. I'll be in touch as soon as I have some dates - hopefully this week. If we go to CME you will excuse me if I tend to drool over the guitars first, won't you? Image
