i played a martin 12 on my last trip to guitar center, and man they're sweet. just basic open chords are awesome, and it's ubelievable how much it adds to grey street

i have been looking to get a 12 string for the past 2 yrs and may actually do it this summer. i been looking at a Takamine.

i just don't know if it is worth it. i do have school to pay for school . how much does the 355 go for. cuz that is an option too. i just love the jumbo style though. darn Tak explodes with sound and is crisp enough to riff away.

i'm so indecisive...

grey street, big eyed fish, spoon, bartender (lately), jtr, raven, kit kat jam, probably a whole bunch of others

355 is probably $1200. not too bad.

i just went to a review of the 355 and it says it has plastic bracing. plastic. so i am not gonna have plastic on my guitar. arghh. so that may have just got cut from my list.
