Interesting. I'd guess it's the Rick 12-string through a Leslie.

Thought about asking Roger on his Folk Den web site?

Never did care for the settings on the Leslie. I think a slower rotation would have been better. Nice idea, no cigar.

IMHO, Leslies are good with 6-strings, but not so much with 12-strings. The fast setting kinda drowns out the octaves, which is what a 12-string is all about.
