Ardiril. . .a curly maple fretboard? I would guess Fender but am not aware of many Fender 12-strings.

What the hell IS it?

That's Key West as seen from an open-cockpit biplane, rainbaby. I was a little dizzy, myself!

DanF - A lefty Carvin with a one-piece mahogany neck-thru body, mahogany body wings, quilted maple top (translucent yellow), and curly maple fretboard. Also, active EQ and tapped pickups. It really sounds best through a Fender Hot Rod Deville 410, but that amp is way too powerful and expensive for my needs. I use a Vox Tonelab (with a 12AX7) that does a fairly decent simulation of a 410 and can keep the signal analog through to the outputs, absolutely crystalline clean tones. I hope to start recording some things over the next couple months.
