I finally got my first Ric, a 2008 330-6 Fireglo, from Pick Of The Ricks. It is a real beauty, looks like it was never out of the case! The finish on this one is beautiful, much more dramatic colors than the 2010 I saw at Sam Ash. This one goes to a blood red at the outside and a nice pink blush in the center. Set up is first rate and Chris put on the strings I requested, D'Addario ECG23, XL Chromes. What an awesome guitar! Here are the requisite pictures:

Congrats, Warren !!
That is a real beauty.... a very nice FireGlo finish !!

Now there's probably a few of those Karma Kings tunes to re-record and overdub with your Ric !!

Congrats Warren the new FG 330's are sweet. I love the small well proportioned headstock.

So, it did, indeed, happen!

Great choice Warren - there's nothing more classic than a 330 in a nice, deep Fireglo. Enjoy!

That's a beauty, and as it's your first, it will always be special.

Congrats, Warren, that is a beauty!

Very nice! Jangle on, Warren!

That's what they all say, isn't it?

Hi, congrats on the new guitar. I had a 330/6 from November, 2008 that looks like a long lost twin sister to yours. What month was yours made? BTW, you said "I finally got my FIRST Ric". As others will verify; your first Rick isn't usually your only Rick. Enjoy playing that real beauty. Start saving now for the other ones. Tom
(Psst.... start calling it a "Rick" and if you ever forget what Desi Arnez looked like, call it a "Ricky")

Oh oh! Now you've done it....the FIRST Rickenbacker, eh?

Congratulations, Warren. I hope you are thoroughly enjoying your new purchase. You also managed to get it from the best Rickenbacker dealer on the planet, bar none!

Congrats, lovely deep FG and nice figured back. Sweet.

I suppose Jeff could tell me this, but how do I tell what month it was made?
