Hope this is okay to post here...I'm not making money off music, and I'm posting because (I think) it serves as a good demo of the Pacemaker, which is a fantastic 12-string. This is a 1975 Pacemaker, tuned to C# Standard.

Speaking of Ovation 12-strings performing, check out AcousticGuitar.com-Acoustic-Guitar-Sessions-Presents-James-McMurtry. Yes, it's only 5 minutes, but WOW! Killer stuff!

Location: 6 String Ranch		McMurtry plays an old Tak 12. I couldn't find the video you referenced but I've seen him several times. Very good, usually plays in an open tuning of some sort.

Location: Cork, Ireland		That's a great song and a great performance. Is it plugged in or mic'd ?
Also curious what you mean by 'tuned to C# Standard'?

Thanks, Sycamore and all! I really appreciate it.
Everything tuned down a step step-and-a-half from standard E.

Here's the newest song featuring the Pacemaker. I think the guitar shines even more in this one.

Two more songs featuring the Pacemaker. 

Soon, I'll have a song or two featuring my JW Folklore RI and Balladeer RI.

Pacemakers are great 12-ers.
(Interesting sound tuned down that low.)
