Thanks...Don't know how I missed the 2nd one...

Just took a lousy photo of mine,

Its a couple refinished #2 boxes 12 string. I tune to open G to keep tension way down and played with a slide. Lots of fun, cool blues guitar.

Man, what an awesome 12 string! Must sound great tuned down to open G.

Thanks Bster. It does sound much more open tuned to open G, not bad for a couple of holes in cigar boxes On my regular 12, I usually tune down a half step and use heavy gauge strings. Makes playability better and I like the deeper open sound.

Cheers!
