350SH, serial F2 8010

Post by casinoman »

I was just wondering if anyone here owns this specific guitar, since I do have the COA. It's not registered here as far as I can tell. I sold the guitar here in Germany in the early 90s but kept the COA. Wasn't there a webpage solely dedicated to tracking down and registering as many 350SHs as possible at one point of time?

Well don't keep us in suspense Tim? What COA are we looking for then? lol


It does not have the signature pick guard either. Looks great otherwise. :)

Hello Michael - I trust that you and your fine collection of 'F-series' Rics are well. About three years ago, I had dealings with one of your fellow countrymen called Michael Dommers who was selling a 350SH in Germany. I don't have a record of the Serial Number and, indeed, in the end I decided not to pursue my interest, as the guitar was not in the best condition for a collector like me. PM me if you want his email address - it might just be the match for your COA.

There is an interesting on-going thread on the RRF right now concerning 350SH 'Overruns' - see viewtopic.php?f=68&t=412933. I guess this raises the question: if you have a Ric 350SH which has neither the 'Susanna Hoffs Limited Edition' scratchplate nor its matching COA, how do you know it is one of the original run of 250 guitars? (with apologies to Tim Lobley of Sound Affects Premier in the UK, who has such a one for sale at present).

For my part, I eventually acquired a near-mint 350SH in Holland -with the proper pickguard (in perfect condition) and original signed COA:
