I’ve been searching your site and trying to confirm, was there a 360 6 string with a flat top like the 330 with binding on the top, like the 360/12 George Harrison played? If so was that 360 Version 1 above the first version with the rounded top? Would like to know more about the design history on the round top version - who designed it, what was the inspiration?
The answer is yes…my complete 360 timeline should go up in the week or so and answer all your questions. That guitar is referred to as a 360OS…check the complete model guide for pics
That timeline isn't correct. Maybe you're not counting the transition to include 12 strings? But even if that's the case I'm not sure that timeline is right...
Some of the guitars here I own, and you're you're not describing them correctly...
I like the versions/descriptions you did, but I'd just delete the timeline and this would be more useful/accurate...
Excellent point, I meant to call out this was about 6-strings only…I have gone back and edited to make that clear. I feel pretty good about the timeline in that context, but am always open to correction—especially if you have a guitar I’m using as a reference!

Interesting journey!
