Rics at GC (Towson, MD)

Post by Rubsoul »

Strummed on a 360W today at our local Guitar Center.
The W was noticeably a bit lighter in weight vs a standard maple 360. I prefer the finish on my 380 over the new W series. The W appears dry and and maybe just needs to be oiled, (or maybe it's the gold hardware on the 380)

The W Plays like a stock 360 to me. In comparison, I still prefer the original 360 finish. GC is asking the full $1999 each.
The 360/12 C series had a wonderful price tag at $3468. :!: Model 1996..was not priced.
All the Rics were on floor stands but don't show up in their inventory.

POTR's beats the c*r*a*p out of these prices...... not to mention Chris's customer service and a super set up when it arrives at your door! 8)

Will have to check it out. Popped into the one in AA county today and they had some ads with Rics on them, but no models in stock. They have a satin finish?

Hi Graham,
The Walnuts are stained without clearcoat. You hand rub tung oil to the walnut to keep them protected and from drying out.

I'm in the Parkville/White Marsh area. What part of Baltimore do you live?
