It needs a rescue and a trip home. |

Location: Phoenix AZ | It's not his fault. The labeling on the early shiny 12's is a mess. Somebody was supposed to order 12-string labels, but I heard that they were re-assigned to glueing tolex on amp cabinets. Anyway, the 12's used whatever kind of label was available. One of my 12's says 'Balladeer' in script as the model, then for serial is typed, and under it it typed '12-string'. Another says 'Deluxe Balldeer' as model. My GC12 says '8' as model and then under it is typed '12-stting'. It's all pretty mixed up. Looks like this guitar needs some serious work. Dave |

Location: boulder | Sort of looks like s/n 1034. It does seem to have a large rossette, not sure why?? The number 2 stamped in the back of headstock is a nice touch. :rolleyes: |

Location: Upper Left USA | For the majority of my educational years I have depended heavily on the bell Curve and its saving grace. So when I go in for my 45 year check up and the Doctor tells me I fit into the 33% range of obese Americans I figure "hell, we're almost a majority, move the line"!
I'm normal, considering my age! ;) |
