There were seven or eight Ric acoustics at SoCal 2007. In fact, a couple were for sale.

Thanks for all the pics !!!

Looks like everyone is having a great time; really makes me wish I was there.

Congrats Alan on winning the guitar. And what a generous offer from Mr Hall to donate the prize !!

Paul W, you are a gentleman !!!!

Darren and Howard, you'll have to fill us in on everything when you get back!!!

Wow. Thank for all the updates, pictures, and videos. They all remind me of the great time I had last year. It's good to see so many familiar faces and happy new ones.

Now me, well I got to spent the past three days at a faculty retreat. Let's see . . where would I rather have been?

Gary kicked things off at Malone's with a couple of acoustic numbers, with Jerry on the drums and Kris Lyons providing backup vocals.

Yeah, I would have liked doing the same.

Looks like I missed half the night at Malone's. Where the heck was I?

John A and I got to do a couple of repairs!! Joey had something loose inside his Rickenamp, and it turned out to be 4 washers. Dane's neck pup on his 4004 v63 was out of phase so we reversed the leads.

What a team!!!
