    I've never seen one live and in person. With that price it seems like they're a tad proud of it.

    That looks light a nightmare. Almost twice the string tension on a one piece neck with a 17 degree headstock.

    Popeil's tomato slicer...great for those kayaking trips and making salad afterwards.

    And it really really works.

    Not to even mention the neck dive, although, heavy as an LP is it might not be an issue.
    I recently bought a Classic 12 from Eastwood but ended up sending it back because the neck dive was helatious.

    Interesting, but I wouldn't buy it at a third of the price. Love the sound of a 12-string. But I hate playing one and I would loathe tuning it or changing strings. So when I weigh the positives vs. negatives, it was never a question for me.

    In the late 1970s (showing my age) I had a 1965 12 string Vox Phantom (teardrop a la Brian Jones). It actually played very well. Kicking myself for having got rid of it - might be worth something now! But that LPjust looks a bit of a monster.
