I hate to beat a dead horse, but has anyone heard what the new finish color for 2004 is yet? I want to order a new jetglow, but not until I find out the new color.

Hey Scott, My guess is Sun-glo! Don’t know why, just a guess – wouldn’t be one I would be interested in – I don’t think!
In various e-mail exchanges to JH he answered all questions but that. He wouldn't even acknowledge the guess! He's keeping it pretty close to the vest and I don’t blame him. I think he said once the dealers knew but were threatened to be cutoff if they leaked it out. Guess we’ll have to wait for NAMM. Can’t go wrong with the classic Jetglo you know!

Cheers!

Thanks Andy, I really gotta bad case of the "I wanna's" for an all black 4003. But personally I'd like to see the Blue Boy finish made available in the states.

The blue boy finish IS available in the states. Check out the Ric home page.

Yup! and Mr. Parks and some blue boy stuff on order!

Right after I posted, I visited Mike Parks's site and saw the orders. May be a blue boy in my future.

You guys must realize that Ric has probably already picked the 2004 finish and is preparing to put it in production ...

Thats why I dont understand all the mystery.

I'm sure that in was chosen about 6 months ago and they all ready have instruments ready to go, at least three for the NAMM show in Jan.

You got that right! Actually, it's been right under your noses for a long time.

white.

"been under your noses for a long time"

'snot green?

(sorry)

It's gonna be hard to top the Montezuma Brown finish. Greenglo would be very cool! Maybe we'll see it someday (anniversary edition?). Just a thought...

Cheyenne: From the RIC Color/Options page.

So the 2004 color is under our noses ...

mustache glo ... hey that's what's under my nose ...

Cool ... hairy Rickenbackers ...
