How does the 360/12v64 stack up against a 330/12 VP?

I am curious to know if it really sounds/plays any better than a regular Rick 12. Any advice or comments?
Nothing compares to the sound of a Rick 12 with a JangleBox and a touch of chorus.

I ordered a "regular" 360/12 VP instead of the C series version (formerly the v64). If you're not into "exact specs" for the 60's version or a diehard Beatles fan who needs a pretty exact replica, I'd say go with your 330/12 idea. The big difference is the price, really. My order cost me $2500 (that's Canadian) while the C series would cost about $3500.

Both guitars sound GREAT (I mean, they are both Ric 12's!). Honestly though, you don't need a "vintage" Ric 12 to kick some ***. I think you'd be VERY happy with a 330/12, and so would your bank accountImage
