Lars you have added two very nice scores.
I have a JG 360/12 WB. A short time after it arrived I installed toasters on it and have never looked back. Double bound Rick guitars are my favourite. As a result, I play my JG 360v64 and my JG 360/12 WB lot.
Btw, my WB has the bound sound hole too. Some don't. I wonder why that is?

I'll post a pic of mine on here. How do you compress the file again?

Brian, the binding of the sound hole have been discussed here:

A half inch is a bit more than I'd hoped... and a bulge in the plywood top is a bit much, too. But hopefully the foam will eventually compress. I couldn't imagine what other Rick this case would be made for. The only thing thinner is a solid body, but their bodies are much smaller than a 360 or 330...

Thanks Lars. I somehow completely missed that thread. That's what I get for not paying attention.

Gordon - your tone sounds AWESOME! Is there a Janglebox in the signal?

Nice sound Gordon. I could not get the video to play past the opening stanza for some reason.

Bill, that's totally cool. I've only seen five of these (360 WB's from the 70s-'80,) including the one I bought today, the first being a blue one like yours that was being used in the B'way cast version of Beatlemania circa '78 (back then I was thinking "George didn't play a blue 12 string!" but I was diggin' that color on that guitar even then.) Blue Meanies would have approved for sure.
By the way, my last band was active in Chgo circa 96-2000. Your band's name rings a bell. Were you guys playing out in those days?
John, thanks for posting the pic.

Yes, quite a bit. About '96 - 04. We'll be back at it, hopefully by this summer. If you'd seen us I'd have been with that guitar. What was the name of your band?

I found that was the remarkable thing about Chgo, so many gigs and bands...a lot of the names I recall but I probably met just a fraction of them all at ours and friends band's various gigs around the city.
I'm sure if I saw you guys I'd remember that guitar. And you must be good to have axes like that.
We were the Disappointments.
