Big YUM!  Love the 340FG and the ASAT!  (What did they call that one?  It's their take on a Gibson, IIRC.)

Thanks all, a 360 Jetglow is high on my list as well. The price hike on all Rics soured me some on the brand.

The 340 AFG stays in tune but the bridge has a slight buzz. One of the  screws always backs up just a tad. I need to put a mild thread locker on it.
The trem is a very mild effect, just a shimmer.


It is called the ASAT Jr. It may be sacrilege to say it here, but it is about my favorite. Its just such a nice guitar to play.

Hmm if I had a way of uploading mp3s I could let you hear it.

Sounds sweet though, nice chimey 12. I run a cheap Danelectro compressor with it to help give it a little jangle.

No way!  That headstock is radical!
