Anybody here have one of these? Are they worth the money? How do they compare to the GB10?

Johns,

No, I'm not fortunate enough to own a GB12, but someone bought that one of EBay already. (Is it you?)

Like most other fanciers of this model, I'm holding out to see if they import the GB100, a reissue version of the GB12.

Hopefully the Ebayer will check in at this site and give us a review.

Not me. I'm just an admirer from afar.

Are you sure the one above was bought? The auction says it ended at US $2,431.00, but the Reserve was not met.

Somedays, life just works out. NightJazz's offer was indeed TOO tempting. The wife was enamored (good pictures of a beautiful guitar can do that :-)) and gave me the greenlight to go for the GB12.

NightJazz was a gentlemen to deal with and went out of his way to make this deal work for me. Thanks NightJazz, you made a dream of mine come true! Here's some pictures of the GB12 that is now on it's way from Alabama to New Jersey. (Please don't be too jealous of me. :-))

Wow, I get tears in my eyes when looking at those pictures, a GB12 tops my wish list. I had the opportunity to by one here in Sweden a year ago, but I passed. Been regretting it since. Anyway, did catch a 2619 in very good condition, and for a nice price, which arrived yesterday. Happy about that one!

Congratulations! (Did not see this post before)

Envious but happy
