I think Fred "Sonic" Smith had a somewhat similar guitar in the MC5 days ? I like the almost-full pickguard alot  8)

The only Ric I really like is the 360 in Jetglo, but man...I like those alot. I've never played one and don't jnow if I could handle the narrow neck.
Where you come from is gone. Where you thought you were going to weren't never there. And where you are ain't no good unless you can get away from it.

I've always sort of wanted one of these, especially the single pickup version (not sure why, exactly). George Harrison played one at one point and I always loved they way it looked.

Ai Aso, a Japanese pop-avant garde singer and wife of Michio Kurihara, plays one as well:
