I posted the Sweetwater pictures because they are way better than anything I could take and they don't do justice to the flame and figure of the back. The action is lower than any 12 string I've ever played. This thing plays as easy as my 614e maybe easier and the tone is outstanding. I sold my 355 JUMBO 12 string to help pay for this and there is no comparison. I am impressed. It was indeed, worth the wait. Fed- Ex delivered it at 10am this morning and I haven't put it down except to sign insurance forms for my new roof. It is a great guitar if you like that kind of thing, lol!

I don't know how long this has been happening but the cases have only 4 latches instead of 5 now. I like this better, that 5th latch was a pita.

I have an LP case with six latches.

I have to get people who went to school at UNC to take off a shoe to count that high. Seriously.
I play badly, but I make up for it by being slow.

Nice!  I like the 600 series inlay on the fret board and the back strap is a nice touch.  I think the new color that the 600 series have gone to are outstanding.  Congratulations, it is a beauty.
