That 1985 is amazing. I am stretched way too thin though.

Hi Everyone,

The GC 12 String is sold. It was on its way to Glen's final tour for a hopeful signature by the new owner.

Thanks for your interest.

Wow. Three beauties. Congrats to the new owner of the 12 string! The label in the 1617 looks weird ... I have one of those. These are great guitars are great prices.

That's not a label. It is a Dean Markey sound hole pickup! LOL

Forgive me, electronickits, so it IS, ha! Apparently, I am blind in one eye and can't see out of the other ... (kidding). Beauties!!

Did something happen to the electronics of the 1617 or you just preferred a Dean Markley installation?

Hi,

I think the guitar was originally acoustic only. The Dean Markey sound hole pickup appears to be a professional install as the jack installation looks similar to the other guitars listed.

Thanks again for your interest.

I think the guitar was originally acoustic only.

That is an Ovation Acoustic/Electric saddle, so it originally had electronics.
If it was acoustic only it would be an 1117 and have a different saddle.
It looks professional cuz they used the original output jack, or at least the original hole.

1617 acoustic/electric ........ 1117 acoustic only


Just sayin'... Y'know?
