What does the VB stand for ? I have a 360/12VP in fireglo. It is particularly beautiful and the tone is great with the toasters. I would buy it if I were you, that would be a great first Ric. It never ceases to impress me how these guitars hold, and even appreciate in their value. A jetglo 360 is also a very cool guitar, I would love to have one of those with toasters. | ||

Can't have a vibrato on it if, as he describes, it has an R tailpiece. | ||

VB could be Vintage Binding? By the way these letters (VP VB ) come from the tags that came with the Rick. Vintage Pickups, Vintage Binding? This is an early model 360 Vintage Reissue from what I have read. Just waiting for the seller to email me and close the deal. This is my 4th Rick so far.. | ||

Hmmm,interesting, but that would be WB for binding. Other than the R tail, it almost sounds like a V '64. The V has toasters, binding but with a trapeze tailpiece. If it is a V 64....it's an unbelievable price. | ||

I thought vibrato because the store where I bought my Ric has a 330 VP VB which has toasters and a vibrato: http://www.williesguitars.com/index.cfm?sector=user&page=detail&prodID=363 Could the tailpiece have been change by the owner? | ||

That is what I was looking for. It could have been changed out but the person says they are the original owner and have paperwork. Unless it was changed out at the factory as a special request maybe? |
