Got my Rico today. Jekyll 727, all mahogony w/a quilt maple top, ebony fretboard, Grover locking machine heads, Bareknuckle aftermath pickup w/a burnt chrome cover. Caribbean burst finish. Excellent cranftsmanship, and sound. I've never played a guitar that was as easy to play as this one. It practically plays itself. Very happy with the Rico Jr. company and am going to be getting my guitars from him from now on!

Holy backwards Jekyll, Batman! That looks awesome, and as a lefty the shape disappears because I'm not used to seeing it, and I can really appreciate that lower horn cut out for fret access!

You'd figure Bernie is a skilled enough builder to not build his guitars backwards. I'd send it back for a correct-handed one. :agreed:

Thanks everyone. Sorry about the crappy photo's. I saved $$ for a guitar and not a camera.
