| Mr. Franklin Had a U12 at Scotty's convention a few years ago. I sat behind it. It sure was a great looking guitar. |

The last time I spoke to Mr. Franklin, several months ago; he told me that he was again building the 12-str. Franklin Guitars. I don't know how long they will be availble.

I had one built a while back. Sold it to a guy in Dallas when I switched over to a D10. It was teal colored. Beautiful sounding guitar.

| I was bothered by cabinet drop on my first 12 string Franklin so I sold it to the 2nd richest guy in the USA, and got another one which plays much better in tune. |

Did he sell it to the 1st richest guy in the US? Does that make you the 3rd richest guy?
Sorry, Doug
