Re: Advice on buying a Ridenour Lyrique 576

It's real,

That logo is the newer version so 2014 makes sense as the year it was purchased it was changed.

One of the biggest problems I personally had with my Ridenour instrument (a Libertas) was durability. The instrument was new, but after 6 months the hard rubber had turned olive green and the plating had worn through on the ring keys and the A and Ab touch piece. Of course this didn't affect playability and the instrument was still a good player. I eventually replaced it with a Greenline Buffet Festival which I personally liked better for various reasons.

Of course this is all just my experience/opinion so take it with a grain of salt.
