  Location: Marlton, NJ | GWB - one of my favorite Christmas songs. The frustrating thing about this song is that my 12 string GC is only 12 frets to the body and this one starts up on the 14th... |

  Location: Marlton, NJ | I watched a few other versions of the song. I always thought he played it on a 12-string, but it looks like a 6-string with some effects.  
  
1/2 of my name is from Greg "Lake" (the other half is King "Crimson"). |
