I just found a 355 with a Fishman Eclipse pickup over at the AGF for a XXXX. New ones are about $XXX0 so I thought I got a pretty darn good deal.

The good buys are out there!

Nice guitar!!  Question - do the Taylor 12-strings stay in tune pretty well?  I have heard stories of having to spend alot of time tuning the 12-strings.

Sadly, the store I went to yesterday is no longer a Taylor dealer, they didn't have much of anything.  It's getting harder for the indies to stay in business and the owner said they just can't keep up with the inventory/purchasing requirements from the big guys.  I'm going back to the larger Taylor dealer in the area here next month so I'll talk with the guys then, I just don't like going to the big-box stores anymore.

I just got a new ukulele  ::)  so I'd better lay-off on the instrument acquisition for awhile or else my non-instrument playing spouse will have something to say about that..... >:(

Besdies, it will give me time to get him used to the idea of why I need a 12-string..... ;D

My Taylor bto jumbo 12 string has scratched my itch for a 12 string completely.
