I hear a few Seagulls regularly. They all would benefit from saddle surgery to get rid of the pick-up...it sucks to tone right out of the thing. Bang for the buck, at least in Canada, they're tough to beat.

One consideration, if you can locate a 12 fret model, they sometimes "feel" shorter scaled even if they're not, simply because the nut is a bit closer to the player. My 12 string is a case in point. Better balance on strap and lap too.

Peace, Mooh.
