Very cool that RIC had the original sales invoice.

I doubt a refin will sell at this price. It's not that rare. Yes, I've seen some with original finish listed as high as 10k. But listed isn't sold.

This is my favorite Ric guitar. They should reissue these.

Gorgeous!

There is a problem with nearly ALL pre Santa Ana made guitars.


The fret locations can be wonky  on many of them . Every Combo 6oo and 800 I have worked on had problems.

There is a formula .. for laying out frets. This was used... but the saw set up traveled .. so you get frets that are not necessarily parallel to one another.

Yes .. they are cool looking ,....very cool  .

Gotta love sellers who INSIST ON DOING THEIR ENTIRE AD IN CAPS.
