My money is on LR10. Cheers, Mark   Guitartim Username: Guitartim Registered: 4-2001 Posted on Sunday, May 13, 2007 - 7:20 pm:    Tulip shaped headstock, subtle wolf ear cutaways, and slightly lighter fretboard (new Brazilian Rosewood) all seem to indicate LR10 to me also. Also Rit's 335's were all Red, but this is obviously a burst in the black and white photo. My eyes aren't what they used to be, so younger eyes help solve the mystery. Any other guesses?   Mrryte Username: Mrryte Registered: 1-2006 Posted on Sunday, May 13, 2007 - 7:59 pm:    I'm also willing to bet that it's an LR10. The only Gibson Rit plays is the cherry red one (to my knowledge).   Johns Username: Johns Registered: 2-2001 Posted on Sunday, May 13, 2007 - 8:02 pm:    I'll say LR10, too.   Sixvsix Username: Sixvsix Registered: 3-2002 Posted on Sunday, May 13, 2007 - 9:22 pm:    That's Ernie Watts on sax, Abraham Laboriel on bass can't see the rest. Maybe Alex Acuna playing the drums for a change? Anyone? six   Sixvsix Username: Sixvsix Registered: 3-2002 Posted on Sunday, May 13, 2007 - 9:24 pm:    Oh yeah. It could be the thru-neck model. six   Petruz Username: Petruz Registered: 5-2004 Posted on Monday, May 14, 2007 - 4:46 pm:    i'd say it's an LR10 by the size of the headstock and horns. 335s have small headstocks   Petruz Username: Petruz Registered: 5-2004 Posted on Monday, May 14, 2007 - 4:46 pm:    i'd say it's an LR10 by the size of the headstock and horns. 335s have small headstocks.
