This thing is amazing. Mike had set it up EXACTLY as described, ready for a medium attack, and I'd say I'm about medium to heavy. It plays like a dream. I've already transitioned 6 songs I was doing on a 6 to a 12. This thing rocks! Mission accomplished. Probably the best wood top, round back, 14 fret to body, cut-away 12 string guitar ever made. Perfect for my style. I'm a happy dude. On with the show... ![]() | ||

I've already decided that when/if I start playing out, I'll be doing several songs on this baby. | ||
