Up for sale, a 1982 Rickenbacker 360/12 WB OS in near-mint, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with the original hardshell case, hangtags/paperwork, and case candy. This 360/12 boasts a gloss Jetglo finish framed on both sides by cream binding, hence the “WB” (with binding) model designation. This example also features the "OS" (Old Style) 360 body shape with pointed cutaways, and this visually distinct instrument was essentially the precursor to the V64 reissue.

The semi-hollow maple body offers a balanced, full acoustic voice with great immediacy and treble cut. Plugged in, this 360/12 WB delivers quintessential Rickenbacker chime, sparkle, and jangle. Even though these pickups are dubbed "Hi-Gain" by Rickenbacker, their modest single coil output allows for clear trebles and ample percussive cut. This 360/12 WB weighs 8lbs 6oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with fresh strings, easy-playing action, and accurate intonation.

The gloss Jetglo finish is extremely well-kept, and wear is limited to some faint finish scratches and tiny marks in the clear coat. The smooth gloss on the neck profile is flawless, and there's some minor "dimpling" in the clear coat on the headstock face from the tuner mounting screws.

The original black tolex hardshell case is included, along with the hangtags/paperwork and case candy.
