My sincere apologies to my Canadian buds regarding my above comment about the 12th Fret's website.

I was feeling particularly "pissy" last night, totally not related to mudcat or The 12th Fret, and should have walked away, rather than post. It was unsporting and I could have said it in a more delicate way.

Trust is, I do find their website cumbersome and not at all user friendly. Since this is my only access to them, that becomes an important issue to me.

But, I frequently see The 12th Fret listed, along with Elderly, Mandolin Bros., Buffalo Bros., as one of the best places to purchase guitars online, offline, and sight-unseen. And not just on the forum, but other guitar forums, as well.

So, please forgive my pissiness. Today is a brighter day.
