It was the only way I could keep my promise to myself to keep only 7 GAs  in the house. So it'll be 7 GA 6 strings, one Mini and 1 GS  12 string...hopefully that's it!

2020 714 - lutz spruce/rosewood

So you have room for 7 GS s.   ;D

I am pretty curious about your 756, when it comes in I will be interested in your assessment.  I don't recall you having a 12 string in your signature, have you had one before?

Not for many years now...I used to play 12 string exclusively in my late teens and early twenties. Then I had a Martin maple jumbo 12 string in the stable for a few years while in my 30s. My last one was a Taylor W65 that I sold in 2003. They say that as you age, taking on a "new" challenge delays the onset of dementia, so this is my first foray into that space before retirement, when I hope to do much more of the same!
