Location: New Hampshire, USA | Hmmm...a 12 string with only 10 tuning pegs.
How would that work exactly? |

Location: Keepin' It Weird in Portland, OR | I had to do some research. I ain't sure about that pick-up...
That is made for Nylon strings. There is something called a Yepes Guitar...
That would be an extended range Classical Guitar.
I would mention it to the seller, but I don't wanna get his hopes up.
Cuz I sure ain't buying it! |

Location: The Great Pacific Northwest | I find these things very interesting. That label looks as if it has aged natuarally, so what was the point? This is one of those instances where the story might be more interesting than the guitar itself... |

Location: Scotland | A piece of junk with a fake label. The label may or may not be a deliberate attempt to deceive, but either way it's a cutout or a scan from a catalog. UK2 and some early Adamas literature has the same text in the same fonts/layout with the Bloomfield rather than Hartford address. |

Location: Texas | I'd buy it, but it apparently needs approximately 4-6 strings "installed…" way too technical for me… ;)
I couldn't resist looking closer: yep, 10 tuning pegs…
I don't know what it is or was… |
