| the 12 string mutt is together, but not quite right, and I'm honestly tired of dealing with it and am frustrated with how long it has taken to still be "not right"
anyway... I've decided to either part it out, or sell as-is... it is complete.. and playable with fair action... but the bridge pu is only half operable(short in phase switch or pickup windings) and I don't think the wiring was done correctly and is grounded wrong. lots of hum(which goes away when you touch the pickups..)
components are.. bluebird 12 neck, uk body, schaller tuners, ovation neckplate, uk pickups, solid bridge, cts pots jacks and switch, pio caps, treble bleeds, ebony knobs, straplocs, and bw trc.
setup and intonation are done.. plays ok.. but sounds like sh*t(hum)...
anyway, if anyone's interested let me know...
$700 shipped conus for OFC members only. reasonable offers considered, but already selling at a loss, so be kind.
if not, the power screwdriver is coming out, and it's getting parted out on the bay...
the neck is an original Bluebird 12 neck (RARE!) owned/played by Glen C, Buddy B, and Miles
Thanks,
Glenn |

| Thanks for asking James.
Char is doing well, we're taking it day by day as her diagnosis is still the same on her heart and her kidneys are starting to fail and she'll have to go on dialysis soon. but we spend our days enjoying the Grands and traveling and enjoying each other and taking Char and the babies to see new things.
we're going to Mckee Jungle Gardens today in Vero, and then down to the casino at Seminole so Char can get in some High-stakes bingo.
we have to be back here by Friday so she can have some more tests and bloodwork done... then we are headed to the Grant Seafood festival for the weekend.
