We've got guys who play slide on 'em! People are initially intimidated by a 12, but it is such an amazing tool. Can you play leads? Yup. And it is THE MOST satisfying rhythm instrument to play, especially a Rick 12. Magic! Did I put in enough caps?   paul wilczynski (Jingle_jangle) Senior Member Username: Jingle_jangle Post Number: 1539 Registered: 12-2004 Posted From: 63.193.9.8 Posted on Thursday, April 14, 2005 - 06:35 pm:    If you don't like it (and you will, believe me!) you can recoup all or nearly all of your investment, especially in a 660-12.   John McKelvy (Wormdiet) Senior Member Username: Wormdiet Post Number: 578 Registered: 01-2003 Posted From: 24.163.18.242 Posted on Thursday, April 14, 2005 - 06:39 pm:    I personally think my 660/12 sounds as good with OD as it does clean.   Anthony Carey (Tony_carey) Senior Member Username: Tony_carey Post Number: 502 Registered: 10-2004 Posted From: 81.157.61.104 Posted on Thursday, April 14, 2005 - 06:51 pm:    paul, I don't THINK that YOU used enough CAPS in YOUR SECOND post!   Geoffrey Lawton (Golfo) New member Username: Golfo Post Number: 18 Registered: 04-2005 Posted From: 24.61.21.170 Posted on Thursday, April 14, 2005 - 07:31 pm:    come on - isn't someone going to come to the defense of the 660/6 as a second rick? you're ALL for the second rick to be a 12er? geoff   paul wilczynski (Jingle_jangle) Senior Member Username: Jingle_jangle Post Number: 1540 Registered: 12-2004 Posted From: 63.193.9.8 Posted on Thursday, April 14, 2005 - 09:24 pm:    THE 660/6 IS A FABULOUS SECOND RICK, GEOFF. BUT ONLY IF YOUR FIRST RICK IS A 12! (Enough caps for you, Tony?)   Geoffrey Lawton (Golfo) New member Username: Golfo Post Number: 19 Registered: 04-2005 Posted From: 24.61.21.170 Posted on Thursday, April 14, 2005 - 10:08 pm:    PAUL I HEAR YOU LOUD AND CLEAR!!
