HI ALL- On the Rick website, I keep looking for archival info or references to the 325v59, and others, v63-64(?). Am I missing something in trying to source on them on the site? Thanks, Tinnitus |

BEN or RICHARD: I recently acquired a beautiful 325V59 in FIREGLO. According to the brochure, only MG and JG were made. The person who sold me this guitar told me that it was very rare - can you give me some more information about it? Serial # is W04777 from 10/97. Many Thanks, Bob |

Sounds like a neat guitar Bob... I would be grateful if you would post a few pics here... Best way to get a response is to call RIC customer service - they don't use the forum for inquires like that due to privacy concerns... |

Indeed! With FG finish it would seem this would make your V59 most rare! |

Thank you for your quick responses! Yes, it's a VERY cool guitar, unlike any that I've ever seen, and in absolute mint condition. I'll be happy to send you a few pics - PM me your e-mail address(es) and I'll send them right out. I'll check with the home office and report any information that they give me. |

FOLLOW UP! I spoke to Richard Cannata Today - apparently my guitar isn't as rare as I first thought. He explained to me that initially only 2 colors were made - JG and MG. Toward the end of the model run, FG and other colors were run, as well. Without any production numbers to go on, it's difficult to say HOW rare a FG is, but they're out there....I'm fortunate to be one of the ones who actually own one. |
