I don't need 2 12 strings, and the Elite isn't going anywhere, so this one's got to go.

12 frets to the body, and the action is fabulous! It had 3 shims in it when I got it, but I've removed 2. There's still one to go if you want it lower.

There are no scratches, dings, warps, bellying, or any other issues whatsoever. It's in showroom condition.

$500 shipped is a FREEKIN steal for this GORGEOUS guitar!

My flash was dead when I took these pics, so not really up to par. I had to use available light.

Oh, case is in excellent shape too except one of the feeties is gone. Original owner's manual included. And the strings are brand new Silk and Steel extra lights.

THAT is a $teal!

If I didn't already have one, this would be mine!

BTW, I prefer the 'mama' blanket; not it's 'offspring'... :D

Oh no, I really don't need to look at another 12 as they never stay more than a couple of weeks around here for some reason. But, that is a beauty. (must look away..) :rolleyes:

If I didn't already have a Pacemaker I would be on this like a hobo on a hot dog!!!

These are a great guitar and the price is great also.

Anyone thinking of getting a 12 string should not let this pass.

Glad that's over... But it did cause me to grab my Pacemaker for a while, and think real hard.

Well, I just got back from Mt. Vernon. The roads are treacherous tonight.

Only one OFC guy I know in that town ;)

Now he has 3 acoustics (and 14 billion electrics).

I guess having a 9-5 will do funny things to a guy...

Shall we explain to the others how we don't get "snow" in the way others understand it?

First we get 1"-4" of lovely snowfall (at 5am today the sky was clear and the Moon was full) now followed by a Noon-time melt and an Evening freeze. This of course is followed by a commute in which all the SUVs think their immuned from "four wheel drift", all of the 4x4s KNOW they own the road (right up until they OWN the ditch) and for some strange reason every RWD Camaro with fat tires comes out to play.

Better to stay at home and play guitar!

Congrats Miles.

It's the same here. They had a news clip on all the slideoffs and they showed a young kid in a Camero who slid into the median. "I was just driving down the road and started sliding, so I hit the brakes."

Beautiful day today. Sunshine glistening off the ice and snow. I've always found it so surprising that folks in general don't know how to drive in the snow and ice around here, but then again... It doesn't often come up.

Mwoody, you forgot one class of vehicle. Actually it expands several classes... those that put on chains and are convinced they are indestructible, even if they are driving a Mini Cooper or old Honda Civic.

Yup to all the above. Just this morning on my way in (in my CRV with the 4 wheel turned off) I passed one of our local mudboys, big Dodge 4x4 pickup with chains all around. He was in the ditch facing the wrong way, waiting for the tow truck to pull him out.

No injuries, so I waved as I went by...

The 12-String is fine. I expected it to be a little deeper in tone, but I'm guessing that's a strings issue more than anything else.
