Carl Wilson 360 Limited Edition
I might have a chance to get a 2000 Carl Wilson Limited Edition that is mint
I would have to trade my Fender American Deluxe Telecaster and my Amp
a Tone King Imperial. I can always get an Amp so what can anyone tell about
this guitar. Thanks in advance and I'll post some pictures in a little while.

I'm no expert on trade values. However, my left-handed 360/12 Carl Wilson sounds great thru my Tone King Imperial. The TK has become my primary amp.

Beautiful guitar! If it were me, I would probably make the trade.raider wrote:I might have a chance to get a 2000 Carl Wilson Limited Edition that is mint

If I remember correctly from the "Rickenbacker 12-String" book, there were 1,000 Carl Wilson guitars produced, split between 6 and 12 string. The tops were slightly thinner than regular tops, which gives them more of an acoustic guitar quality.
Here's a link to info on the Rick forum:

Correct, but a limited series of just 500 guitars.
Re: Carl Wilson 360 Limited Edition
Thats right, 250 6-string and 250 12-string guitars.
They've got 3k Toasters (which is very very special) and the weight of the CW's is less than of a usual 360. You can feel the light-weight.
I love this guitar.

How does the sound of a 3k toaster different from a 7k toaster?

I had a 360 Carl Wilson in Jetglo which was an absolutely fantastic instrument. Man did it sound good. I'd love to get another just like it.

"The stats have never been published. The total quantity is 500 units but it's certainly not split 50/50 between sixes and twelves. The preponderance of these were Fireglo's, there's a few Jetglo's, as there always are, and finally some lefties in all types."

Re: Carl Wilson 360 Limited Edition
Get the RIC. CWs are really great guitars. I've had both the 6 and 12. And that is a good looking example. Do it if you didn't already. You can always get a Telecaster too.
