I've a question about that guitars.
Who knows how many of these were built?
Who ones one?
There is only one 6-string registrated on Dave's page, I think it's Fugot. I was searching for others, but don't found them. They must be really rare, tho' they are sounding not awful.

I'm captivated with the 5858/N858 pics I've seen; beautiful wood! I'd love to try one.

Indeed Iffi, I love it and it is one that will never leave my stable. It looks different by any change of light and it sounds as dark, may be a bit as a koa guitar. Best playability of all 12's I've ever plaid. That's why I don't understand, that are no more of them here by the folks.
