I sent the seller of the first one 2 emails and have yet to get a reply. It is most likely bogus. The Shadow is SWEET. If I did not already have one I would be on it myself. The autumnglo is also nice but I have one of those too. I am, however looking longingly at that trans red CII.

Finally a pic up of the 1st one...looking to be more of a 74.

I sent him a link to the serial number decoder on the RIC site. He corrected his info right way.

Well at least he kinda corrected the auction listing description and did post pictures so it looks like a legitimate auction... (tongue in cheek)- now, someone send him a link to a dictionary so that he can look up the meaning of the word mint!!! *-)

Man, that is one horrible bridge replacement.

That is a Schaller bridge. I believe that it does not adjust narrow enough for a Ric. If you look at the pics, as ****** as they are, it appears that the strings are at the edge of the fret board at the upper frets.
