Well here are picts from #9. It was the one where the heel of the neck
broke in shipment. I glued it back and had the neck refinished. We went
with a sunburst on the neck to hide the line. I think it looks awesome. It
is my 1st 12 string and my 1st SJ. I will hopefully have it strung up in a
couple of days. Making the nut seems like a major project!!!

Details
SJ 12string slightly deeper body   4 and 4.5
Cocobolo B&S LMI
Lutz Spruce Top from Shane!!!!
Koa rosette with red/white/blue purfling around rosette and guitar.
This one is a suprise gift for my music teacher. I needed to "practice"
making a 12 strings since I have a customer that wants one down the
line.
I think it is simply done and nice. Not outrageous like some of my Mac
Ebony guitars.

Very nice work Andy. Are those full size tuners youve used or are they
minis?

Cheers

The tuners are Gotoh minis

Thanks for the kind comments

Andy, "simply done, and nice" is true, but really an understatement. It's a beautiful instrument, and the heel recovery is top notch.

Thanks for the words. I strung it up tonight. It sound very nice. I still have
to lower the saddle and intonate!!!! That is going to be a challenge!!!
