Maybe it’s a bit mad to consider buying a new Ric but with the waiting lists etc how did you go about getting one? (If you bought new). Deposit to a particular shop and wait it out? Are they made to order or just a certain amount are on the market every few years?

I got lucky with someone who had a delivery of new ones coming from the US

Is it a jetglo 660 with toasters?   ARGHHHHHHHH!

Just as well it's  collection only and in Benfleet as it might as well be on the Moon™ for me.

Benfleet, eh? *idly ponders Google Maps*

Hmm, this is a club I'd like to join  always hankered after one of those 350v63 full scale version of the Lennon Rickenbacker in black, never had the chance to play one though ... 330 fireglo looks good too ....
