If you think of god as a pair of pants, a spiritualist thinks he needs pants, in fact he wants pants but none of the conventional types of pants seem to fit just right, so he makes his own pants and is happy that his knees are no longer cold.-fibus

That's beautiful. Enjoy!

When did Ric switch back to the big fret markers, 60's style?

Didn't the price of 360's go up to almost $1700 bucks? You must have had one heck of balance on that MF card to make up the difference of $100 dollars. :lol:

Actually, they are now $2249 at MF but they have the Jetglo "on sale" for $1699.I really wanted one after I saw that they put the full length inlays on the 2008.I sold my Les Paul for $1399. so I only owe $200 on the Rick.

That iPod song?

Those guitars remind me of old bluesmen, too old to do much, sitting and reminiscing. That's a cool picture.

Compare the two Rics! Sondzes? I can see the appeal. Is it as fun as the LP was?

I was talking about Nina Simone's version eventhough it's a much older song. Jcyphe don't know nothing about no fucking Ipods.

Lovely.

Rics have never really been my bag but a shiny new guitar is always awesome.
