A cherry red (COY?) 360 with black pickguard and no TRC? A fake?

Looks genuine to me...

Makes sense, from a composition standpoint, for them to not want the brand name to overpower the photo, so they removed it.

I guess the other six tuners also would have overwhelmed it ...

Mark, I'll tell you what that is. It's a recurring dream of mine! While visions of jangling indie angels dance in my head...

Mark it is an '80s 360/12, red with black trim. This was a standard color then.

Here's a link to an '86 catalog that shows this color. Here's a link to color time lines and other info.
