The Story: After Carl Wilson's death in 1998, Rickenbacker created the 360-12CW Carl Wilson 12-String. They produced a limited production of 500 in honor of Carl...250 12-strings & 250 6-strings.

This item was "Signed & Documented By Brian Wilson". This 2000 Rickenbacker 360-12CW Carl Wilson 12-String is in immaculate "Un-Played Condition". It is #103 of the 500. The signing was done at the 10th Anniversary of Carl's passing. A concert was held at the Roxy Theater in Hollywood, CA on Sept. 19, 2008, by the "Carl Wilson Foundation". All documents and Brian's signature are documented and notarized. That's the story and the guitar was put into storage and never used!
