Post by: Dave W on November 13, 2009, 09:46:56 AM: Devil tux? WTF? that's just an ordinary red Rick with black trim. The kind that they produced in large numbers (for Rick) for a while until dealers found that almost nobody wanted red with black trim. Some of them sat unsold in stores for years.

The red version of the Tuxedo was called the Redneck, it had the red enameled fretboard.
