There are 24-fret examples going back to the late 70's, so yeah, that is definitely incorrect.

Patrick, I trust that 360/12WB is now residing at your home.

Absolutely it is. Now to justify the expense, I have a vintage Uni-Vibe for sale.

There was really no difference between the B series and a standard 360/12 WB other than the pickups. I do not think they made any B series in MG though.

A STEAL. Fabulous deal- congratulations.

Oh, and that case is original. Why it is so tight I do not know.
