Off topic, but still in the family:

This is a very interesting 12 string. Note it is "reverse" stringing a la Rickenbacker.

Hamer 12 on the Bay

Beautiful guitar and a steal at this price. If I didn't just land a Deacon 12, I'd be all over this one.

I had one like that once. The reverse strings are the way to go.

Played one in a Ted Brown shop just a bit ago.

Smoove!

$1900 on the shelf.

I have owned a couple of Newport six strings, and they are really nice guitars. Real necks, too, compared to the skinny ones on most RIC's.
