Ginger commented on Allen's photo
Framus Texan 12 Special
"Hi Allen -- I notice Martin's already spotted you here, & I'm not surprised. What an incredible looking Framus you have! I have not seen one like that before either & I wouldn't be the least surprised if it was one of only a…"

My 1964 Framus Falcon 12
"Hi Guys; Just got a Framus Falcon 12 today looks just like Ginger's except the head is Blonde. I'll take pics later."
Ginger commented on John Wilson's group 12-String Guitar"@Edward - was your post supposed to have a link to David in it? I couldn't find one but I would LOVE to hear that!! I knew the story of his D-18 conversion...they told me all the details when I bought my D-18. But I've never heard David…"
Ginger commented on James Sennett's group Martin Owners"Just a little more regarding Chris' father who 'retired' from the guitar making business. I just checked in my Martin books & he was indeed an alcoholic who really had no interest in making guitars. It wasn't so much that he…"
Ginger replied to FloridaGull's discussion GAS for future acoustic/electric 12-string... in the group 12-String Guitar"Ken - I would ask the same question. My sister has a six & a 12 string Seagull which, given their due are fairly old now, approx 25/26 years old but both have had to have the bridges reglued. Her 12 actually pulled so hard that the wood on the…"
Ginger replied to FloridaGull's discussion GAS for future acoustic/electric 12-string... in the group 12-String Guitar"Well, I have the Martin D12X1 & if the D12XAE is anywhere near the quality & sound of mine, you couldn't miss buying it even at it's full price. As stated many times before in this forum, this guitar is an amazingly nice sounding…"
Ginger replied to Russ's discussion new to 12 string in the group 12-String Guitar"I was about to say the same things Edward just did, so I'll only concur with what he's said. I too, have two 12 strings, a Framus & a Martin, both inexpensive but taken care of so the bridge isn't pulling up or the neck…"
Ginger commented on James Sennett's group Martin Owners"I've never used them but a friend of mine has. While he did switch back to his regular strings, he said the RED strings were pretty good. I guess just not good enough for him to stick with. But then he works at Sam Ash so strings etc…"
Ginger commented on Johnny Butts's photo
12 string Framus
"Hi Johnny -- well I have to tell you, yours is the first Framus that I've seen with the very same adjustable bridge as mine has!! This is kind of exciting! I have a friend who found one that's the same in all other respects but the bridge…"
Ginger commented on James Sennett's group Martin Owners"LOL to Stephen! Ain't dat da troot? Suing these days is right up there with lying & frankly this is where it comes in handy to have a brain & use it! If we accept someone based solely on the big letter after their name rather than…"

tim mc nulty said… - Hi Ginger it happens all the time. I like antiques and love to look at antique furniture. I often will say to myself "that would make one nice guitar". As for my adiction with guitars. I have just (meaning with in the last 5 min.) bought my 7th guitar. I cont pass it up. It was only $106.00. Though it is a project I think I can fix it up. Its a right hander and im a lefty so I dont know if ill be able to play but for the price we'll see. Anyway thanks for commenting. Hope to talk later.

- Thanks Jim, I'm noticing that already & I've barely scratched the surface. Thanks so much for the welcome - I hope I'm able to eventually add something to the site too. Besides comic relief that is. ;)
