Now then my life was made a touch my complicated by the appearance of the Paul Brett signature 12string. This is a slight oddity in that this is a parlour sized guitar which to be honest wasn't my initial desire but has received rave reviews and also has been designed as a 12string from the ground up - unlike the Gordon Giltrap which is an adaptation of a 6 string design. Not unusual to be fair most 12 strings ar...
