"The 360/12CW is the ultimate in Rick 12 strings, imho."

IMO, too! It's not only stunning to look at with all the figured maple, but it sounds spectacular. The thin top and light weight make the 360-12CW unbeatable. Until Ric makes a 360-12V65, this is 360 to have.

Steve & Rumbush, I wasn't impressed with my CW 12 & it left before too long. IMO, the ultimate 12 is the 360V64, with the older, hotter toasters. Great tone, great looks, great gtr.

Paul....GREAT idea for plugs on the harness. My 350V63 is going to get a hi-gain in the bridge to give it a little more meat. I'm happy with the 7.4's in the neck/mid position, but a 7.4 in the bridge?....not for me. A plug would make this so easy.
'Rickenbacker'...what a name! After all these years, it still thrills me.

Let me do a bit of sourcing on the plug idea...it's really nothing new, but this is a good time to dust it off. I'll fill you guys and gals in and photograph the setup when it's done.

Right now I'm final-assembling the 320 AG and will try to get some pics posted over the weekend.

I have to agree with J. Oliver & Steve regarding the 360/12CW. But then again, I have not had the opportunity to play very many left-handed 12 strings other than the 360/12CW.
