- transitional model; discussed at http://www.rickresource.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=400656
Conclusion was that this is considered an 850 by RIC; appears to be one of approximately 5 examples made for a trade show with combo-style solid butcherblock body with German carve on front, Capri style 3-piece glued-in neck (tenon showing on back) and toaster pickups in bridge and neck positions; similar example appears in Jerry Byrd photo on page 64 of Smith book. Sometimes categorized as "850 Combo SPC" because the earlier "horseshoe" bridge pickup 850 models were dual-coil with two switches; however, this model has a single coil toaster in bridge position. Is also properly categorized as a 650 Combo, as "650" is hand written in pencil under the truss rod cover.
