Bob, was their ever a 370WB?

Sure there was. I just talked it over with Kenny and he said sure. They were made during the 70's and 80's. In the 60's there was the 370 O.S.

Made through the mid 90s. I have one from 1994 and owned another made in 1992 that I sold to a Forum member. They were also available with 12 strings, like this one from 1994.

There was a white (yellowed) one on ebay pretty recently. Cool guitar, it went for about $1200 I believe.

Thanks chaps. I have a 360WB that I am toying with the idea of adding a third pick up, but didn't want to if there was no such thing.....I'll think on it!

Wow... I just got serious GAS for an Azurglo 360 WB 6 string to match my Burgundyglo 12... anyone ever seen one of those?

Like this?





( Funny you should ask...)

But it's NFS...

The 370WB was the first 'new' RIC I ever owned. I special ordered one back in late 1984 in jetglo. They are kinda rare.

I sold Kev that '94. Boy was that nice. Thanks guys for the great pics.

The 360WB/370WB was removed from the price lists on November 1, 1995.

Mine is an '84, with X bracing & an extra thick top. Wow, is it heavy....slinging a 330 on afterwards makes the 330 feel as if its made of balsa!

I'd really like a 90's WB, with it's more modern method of construction & of course, it's beautiful rich FG.

Here's the 92 Kevin mentioned:

My '94 370WB:

I can remember playing a new Ruby 370/12WB in a music store in 1982-83; I can remember going WOW out loud when I saw it hanging in the store.

I know that there are photographic issues, but on the face of it, the colour of that '92 is about as good as it gets IMO.
