Hey guys:

Does anyone know the difference between the Glen Campbell and Pace Maker 12 strings? I'm looking for a 12 fret 12 string.

Thanks.

Jim

Good choice. Give Tony Calman a jingle SJ. Besides the TRC I don't know the answer on that one.

I'm no expert on the Pacemaker. Couple of cosmetic - bound fretboard, trc, and gold tuners on the GC.

Only played one Pacemaker. Just know that the acoustic GC that I have - I enjoy playing the GC as much as my 1658 CL's. Impressed with the Pacemaker but it just didn't seem to be as good as the GC - course, it could have been the individual guitar, kind of a small sample; probably not fair.

The only difference is ornamentation. The Glen Campbell has diamond inlays, gold tuners and bound fingerboard. The pacemaker has chrome tuners, dot/diamond inlay and unbound fingerboard. I wouldn't normally do this (so please forgive the self promotion), but I just happen to be selling a '78 GC 12-string on ebay right now. I JUST listed it minutes ago... Here's a link:

Nice guitar Jeff. Nice BIN as well.

My first Ovation 12 was a Pacemaker, very nice.

If they didn't make CL's and Adamas I would have it still. Too many flavors out there.

Get Jeff's and don't look back.

there were two GC's that went for around $750 last year...I had to pay $575 (incl high shipping) to get mine in this condition.

Buy it now or someone else will...

Thanks, Mike...

I just got a left handed 72 GC 12-string for the price that I set as my "BIN," which I felt was a great deal. So, you could say, I'm passing my savings onto the buyer of this one, as I'm only interested in recouping what I have in the '72 lefty. Again, sorry for the blatant self-promotion, but that was just too coicidental. I hope someone from here ends up with it.

I just missed it. Did you get it Jim? Hope it works out for you. If not, keep me in mind.

Okay, guess I'm just tired but I thought Jim got it, then I find Jim got it and Jim didn't get it.

Kinda like the situations we get into with the Pauls.

I'm counting on Jeff having us confused as well. Then he can send me the guitar and the other Jim can have the invoice!
