David - an inheritance, and the circumstances surronding how I got the money are ufortunatley pretty unsavory.

However, the money has helped a ton with my pricey college tuition, and I have been very lucky in that I was able to spend some money and buy some of the instruments I grew up dreaming about owning.

John - I certainly didn't mean to cast any aspersions with my comment! Good luck with your college experience, and enjoy those Ricks :-)

I hear you John, I'm at University here in Canada and I also have to pay for it... I just payed the second semester of this year (2300$ Yikes!) and I don't have a penny left for anything...
And I know as soon as I see more of the blueburst that I'll seriously want one...
I should quit University, use my loan to buy some more equipment and start playing gigs!

Hey, I'm (GASP!) 55 going on 17, I think, and just bought my first Ric (a 360/6 MG) in December. I've wanted a Ric since those early Byrds-Beatles days, but never could find one when I was in the buying mood. It took a few decades past puberty to do what I coulda, shoulda done 20 or 30 years ago. How happy am I with the Ric? Sold off two prized Fenders. Don't need 'em, don't want 'em -- this is all the guitar I need and want. But to get back to the question (wait a minute ... senior moment here ... what was the question? Oh, yeah ... ), there's an eternally young rocker inside every Ric-pickin' dinosaur!
