Location: Phoenix AZ | Upon getting our U681's last year I know a few of us immediately concluded that a 12-string version, 12 fret slothead would be the cats meow and a perfect companion for the 6 string. Some day ...

Location: Latitude 39.56819, Longitude -105.080066 | I saw that....Cliff did a great mock-up for us to drool over. Unfortunately for me, I have to decide if it is in the cards or not. Six months ago, my order would have already been placed.
But now.....I have a 1688 (Big Blue Adamas 1), my Baxendale custom 12 fret cutaway slothead 12 string and my soon to be delivered 2080D baritone 12 string.
With the exception of Tony and a few others, does anyone REALLY NEED FOUR 12-string guitars?
Gonna have to mull this one over pretty hard! |

I have three 12 strings now. If anyone comes up with a good reason to have four,( A reason my wife will buy), AND the cash, I think this would be a killer Guitar. :cool: |

This ought to be a killer 12 string!
Anybody notice that the mock up Clifford did (which looks great by the way) has old style Kluson tuners on it? |

Location: Boise, Idaho | I hardly ever play the one I have. When I upgraded, I sold the Applause 12. That's one area where I don't feel the need for more than one Ovation. I'd probably even get another Ovation solidbody before I got another 12 string. |

Location: SoCal | 12's are great. I've got Big Blue (Adamas I 12), a Preacher 12, and a 1969 GC 12 string that should be back from the factory in a few weeks with a whole new body (and lease on life). Everybody should own a few 12's. |

Does anybody other than Tony and a few others REALLY NEED to have 6 or more 12-strings? :rolleyes:
I agree tho....this one that Al is offering will be a killa.....and I am really thinking about it seriously! |
