I'm told this model was called RCA SPC:12-STR on the warranty card. I've posted this before but these shots are new. I've been taking high quality pics of my Rics and this is the first batch. More to come as I prepare them. I sent slightly larger shots of it to Bjorn's site as well.
Cheers,
Bill

That is sensational, Bill! I've had to have two extra CCs and dry just to keep everything under control - I LOVE IT!!!

Can you give use some more info (year, types of timber, neck dimensions, etc)? Also, what type of pups are they (don't look like vintage or hi-gain to me)?

I'm thinking 'not for sale at any price (yet)'!!

WOOOF, WOOOF!!!

I remember when one of these went up on Ebay -selling for a VERY reasonable sum. I have only just stopped kicking myself. Grrrr.

Lovely instrument.

I remember that auction... I got outbid. :-(

Oh, well... the Burgundy 381/12 I recently got has been doing a good job of making me forget the RCA model.

But these pics here aren't helping matters any... grr.

Goodness.... ya just had to go ruin my day....
That RCA thing is a work of art! (could only be inproved by adding a pickup and making it a 370).

Awesome looking axe! Not sure why RIC hasn't made one of these as an option. They should as with the 380L being discontinued. I wasn't really fond of the neck on the 380L.
