They sound well good and all but I don't really like Ric 12's...Ric necks are fat enough and the the fretboard is pretty narrow for a 6....they don't make the 12's with any different dimensions so the strings are way too close together for me. I suppose this is something that you adjust to after buying one but I couldn't see myself doing that as much as I love my Ric 330.

I have a danelectro DC12 right now, and I'm thinking the next 12 I'll get will be an Italia Rimini 12 in sunburst or black.

agile harm 12 string, LOVE mine, despite the neck dive

It would take a non-mirrored pickguard, and a regular looking F-Hole to get me to buy one of those. They look decent for the price.

Do it! I've got a Desert Gold 660/12 and absolutely love it. I've also owned a 330/12 and a 360/12, and though I like the bigger semi-hollow bodies, the extra spacing on the neck of the 660/12 is quite nice. Oh, and they're beautiful.

Do the toasters sound substantially weaker than the hi gains? I want my output levels to be pretty similar between guitars when I play out.

right now a ric 12 is kind of a "maybe next year" kinda thing for me.....but it's good to know they make one I would be comfortable with. They are beautiful.

Not a huge difference, but there is a difference. There are different toasters as well. Some are wound hotter and some are quite weak. Also, the 660/12 is the production version of the Tom Petty signature guitar.

Oooh, I think that's possibly my favourite Smiths track at the moment. I've got my heart set on a 360/12, I find the 330s a bit big, and am not too keen on how pointy the horns are. And ideally I'd want toasters 'cause at the moment I'm finding the Hi-gains on my 620 to be a bit aggressive. I'm also going to have to agree with Nick on the fretboard thing, how they seem far too close together, but yeah, I think it'd just take time to get used to. Anyway, I can't see me ever getting one unless I sell the one I have.

the harm 12 is back in stock now...
