Yeah, you are probably right, I wasn't thinking.

That's very probable since the one Laredo on display at NAMM was Midnight Blue.

Tony, those two Cii Cheyennes are most likely these from the NAMM display:

With the Laredo shipping to Pick of the Ricks and the TB Cii going to the Rick Page, If I was on the hunt I would pursue that TR that shipped to Wildwood in Colorado. Last year I saw the 4004L from NAMM shipped to North Coast and I ended up first in line for it. Unfortunatley it got damaged by a loose knob and circumstance made me give up my place while waiting for the refinish by RIC.

You never know unless you ask!

:D

So why does RIC continue to get everybody excited and display these things at a trade show if they never intend to build or ship any in the forseeable future? I agree they're great, lets see a few in the market.

I think Ben said the 4004s have been scheduled for April. I'm assuming he also is including non BBR models, but I don't know for certain.
