The V63 - is that a slightly metallic fin...?

Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...

Turquoise is metallic.

That's real similar to the color I did on my BachBird.  That Ric is beautiful!

Always loved that turquoise finish. That's a later, short headstock V63. I'm wary of any Ric post '98. The neck profiles got weird and chunky. I think they're slim again as of this past year or so.

I have to admit I really like the blueboy finish, though I would probably never get one for myself. Saw one in person once in a store in Japan, it looks like candy! :P

The tobaccoburst 1999 went for $4000. A bargain!  ;D

The midnight blue v63 is from the same seller as the turquoise v63. I wonder if someone is unloading his collection.
