Welcome back Dan!

You had a thread under your other profile (Dan Schafer), that we were posting 'Viper findings'.

"They make a 12 string Viper??" Yes Wabbit, they are really nice.

Michael passed his black one on to me when he was able to find one in natural. I have one in natural, going in this week to the Spa. We're going to redo the top in nutmeg to match the Book Viper and refinish the back in satin.

Dan, the black EA58 is with Tony right now, but I'm sure it could be yours if you send money.

Welcome back, Dan, and good luck in the search. Vipers in colors other than natural and black seem very scarce these days.

Actually the Bluebirds were Vipers in appearance only, they were urethane foam bodies on an aluminum frame like the UKII.. which is why I am resurrecting the Bluebird 12 neck on a UK body instead of a wooden viper body.

Dan is referring to the current solid acoustic models, not the 70's solidbody Vipers or Bluebirds.

Dan, after reading your posts from last summer where you were looking for a Viper 6, I, too, became interested and eventually found this beauty. I use it a lot for the Praise Band these days. I, too, am looking for a Viper 12. Maybe I'll ask if the factory could build me one that matches this.

I'm sorry I wasn't aware of any of the current production a/e solid body Vipers being called Bluebirds.
