Gordon, welcome! That is a very unique Rick. Any chance of seeing some pics? Besides being musical, we are very visually oriented here!
Does it have a bound soundhole?

Jeff, you're such a skeptic! You're thinking that Gordon actually has a V64!?
Maybe so. The proof is in the pics!

I will do my best to send some pics. It has achieved a beautiful gold patina that comes with aged maple. Photos to follow soon.

Nah, no nerves were struck, it was just a spirited, good-natured back and forth for a page and a half-quite funny in retrospect, and exciting no anger at the time.
Most WBs have a bound soundhole. Some of the 70s models do not, and some 12 strings from the early 80s don't either.

Question: How does the 360/12WB differ from a model like the 360/12v64?

Very nice. Yours is the only WB I've I've seen with Kluson (RIC) Deluxe tuners, and not Schallers.
