A dealer told me that there were only 15 made.
I am hoping RIC will give us more information about these.

Our opinion here is that this is the same guitar. The dealer sold it on eBay (who was counseled and placed on probation for violating his dealer agreement) then we assume that the buyer has flipped it already.

That's interesting John.
Could you give us any information about how these models came to be produced?

Fastest I've ever seen was a dealer (let's say their names contains a C and a G) who had it up same day we shipped it! They had it on eBay even before we could invoice it to them! They sold it to an employee who had put it on eBay... sure, we believed that one!ajish4 wrote:That explains how it got on Ebay so FAST!

Werner I am impressed with your intimate knowledge of the inner business of the RIC corporation! Who knew the Netherlands was so well connected to Southern California!Electrostring wrote:Fastest I've ever seen was a dealer (let's say their names contains a C and a G) who had it up same day we shipped it!

Any specs? Are these cross-braced or do they have a centre block?
