Description
What makes this guitar special: A wonderful player with an ultra cool, true vintage vibe! The figuring in the body is absolutely gorgeous & the guitar has a beautiful, natural acoustic resonance even before you plug it in! But once you do, look out! The Ric "toaster tops" sound fantastic & deliver rich, bell-like tones that seem to chime for days. Professionally set up & inspected by the experts at Cream City Music, so she's ready for action straight out of the case!
