I bought mine in 1968, and it remains the heaviest 12 string I've ever owned - BUT I loved it.

It was a really honest guitar, held tune but had a plastic coated neck, if I remember correctly.

I used to strap on my back and go to gigs on my 1954 Triumph Thunderbird, arriving at the gig (dressed like a Dylan clone, no helmet and curly hair) with a head full of local insect life.

God I was cool.
