took me 2 hours to compile and list , Did i just preach copy and paste the other day
that'll teach me , try again when i put this laptop back together

Thanks Michael, I'm pretty psyched too. I could send you a pic of two Rickys flanking my Fender Blues Deluxe Reissue with two Bottles of Ardbeg on top, smile

Isn't that "Doh!" meaning NO? So they dub it in german. "No" in german is NEIN.
They pronounce it in the same way something like "Dein!"

Simpsons are graet! big_smile

I took the plunge and made a deal with Spider for #24 (Thanks Andy!) I should have it in my hands next weekend if the shipping guys get it right.  Hope to get Joe to sign it in August.

I know where #125 lives. The shop wants $4500 for it.  They may deal but I can't say for sure as I've never bought an axe at that establishment.

Email me if you want a heads up on it.

Your welcome Tom. I'm glad it's now yours. Honestly I never really played that axe. Only unplugged. I might have just let a true gem slip through my fingers. yikes

ummmm.......thats funny. I have #265 sitting right beside me. 256 maybe?

I just threw that out there in case someone wanted #125  I knew that other retailers were discounting them and mentioned it to the sales rep I was talking to. He didn't sound interested in haggling or maybe he didn't have the authority to do so. I told him that I knew guys who had got them for around $3850 new. $650 is quite a bit of wiggle room.

Yeah, I just wanted to throw that out there too. No sense in spending more $$$ than you have to in this economy!!!

And for anyone who hasn't bought one........you don't know what you are missing!! Its a phenominal guitar!!!!!

Hey Libs... Andy is the godfather. So that would make him Don Spider-lione.  LOL!

Geez, I gotta say a JBLP plumbed through a 100 watt Marshall is one kick-*$$ combo!

But I'm not planning on ditching any of the Ricks anytime soon either cool

It was shipped yesterday, so my Friday or Saturday. I'll know. I am excited as hell. I have never owned a custom guitar, and at 47, this is a big thrill for an old man.

I't came today #275. I won't be able to play it for a few hours - taking the wife out for dinner and  a play. More to come. I am as excited as a kid at Christmas.

Yes, great deal. I was going to buy a standard Gold Top, but when they reduced the price, I dug a bit deeper and got this beauty.
