Here is my 1989 360WB VP. It has a few flaws and some minor checking but it is one of my favorite guitars.

1989 360WB VP ??? .... now I'm confused. I thought that body shape is a 330. If it was made in the early 60's then it would be a 360, but for one made in '89 I thought it would be called a 330. A 1989 360 body should look like this,

right? (and doncha just love that all-black look?)

This whole 330 / 360 think that Ric did way back when sure has caused a lot of confusion over the years.

A 330 has no binding and dot fret markers. A 360WB (with binding) has binding on the front and rear of the body and the neck, also triangle fret markers. VP=vintage pickups (toasters). A post '66 360 has a rounded front body as you have shown.

Gorgeous, Fred. A nice digital camera in strong daylight shadow would give me a better idea of the color, which I'm sure is spectacular!
