Pictures of my new 660/12

Post by Medicus1963 »

Hello,
these are some pictures of my new 660/12 in Midnight blue. I always dreamed iof havin a 360/12 like George Harrison, but my fingers were too clumsy and thick.
Now i decided after a few weeks of decision to buy this guitar with the wider neck, and man what a difference !! I can play !! The sound is not too far away from the hollow bodied sisters.
Really nice guitar.

Greetings

Peter

Congrats, Peter! This guitar has the body style of the guitars you love to play, but an easier neck width for you in a great color to boot.

Very, very nice.
I, too, am a fan of the gold on blue. Nice look and not very common.

As I begin my search for a 12 string Ric, the 660/12 is the leading candidate. I am torn between the blue & gold of yours and the red & gold like the Tom Petty model.

I don't currently own a blue guitar so I have to admit after seeing yours I am really pulled in that direction!

Nice score,
Harry

Peter, the 660 looks awesome in MID with gold! So, how's life with this beauty? Managed to put her down yet?
