12 strings are cool man.

Especially as played by Blind Willie McTell, Leadbelly, and Leo Kottke.

Though Vox would definitely be my weapon of choice if I could ever find a good deal on one.

Did I sell that to you? I sold it to someone here. I kick myself when I think about it.

Yeah that was me, sorry :oops:

Rest assured it's gotten plenty of use both on stage and in the studio. Have not needed or hardly wanted any other 12 string. If I ever loose my mind or my job and need to sell it I'll give you first dibs.

Exactly. Always wanted one like Ian's. They are quite pricey now.

I've been eyeing up fleabay of late - there's a company called astons on there (i think) that sell a phantom copy kit to build for 150 quid - all the parts you just paint it and build it yourself.
I think ian had a couple of phantoms - love JD!
