When you want to blow minds, a 12 string guitar is the tool of choice.
Enveloping sound when strummed, yet haunting and articulate when picked individually.
I'm so thrilled with how this presentation piece turned out - European Spruce & Brazilian rosewood turned out to be the ideal tonewood choice for this instrument, and I really love the handsome appointments. Unlike the behemoth 12 strings of the past, this 16" Della Volpe model is lightweight and comfortable to hold with electric guitar playability and action. Parting is such sweet sorrow, time to make another like it...
Thanks everyone for checking in and I wish you all peace and happiness in the new year!
