2017 Williams 12 string universal 700 series with 7 pedals and 5 knee levers. Loaded with abalone inlay and
Steel Tronics ZB single coil pickup.
Pedal setup is the basic Jeff Newman format with the exception of several knee levers. Never played this guitar out, home use only and like new. Recently strung with D'addario NXYL. Comes with 2 separate cases. One for the body and the other for pedal rack, legs and rods.
$2,900
I can just about carry myself so I won't be able to ship, local pickup only. Donation to SGF upon sale.

Thanks for all the PM and email responses. However, I am holding out for a local pickup.
Thanks,

That's a great steel at at good price. If I didn't already own 2, I'd buy it! Bill Rudolph provides great service and these guitars are easy to work on. _________________ 2016 Williams D12 8 x 8, 2015 Williams D12 8 x 8, 2023 Williams S12 4 x 5, Milkman Amps, 1974 Gibson Byrdland |

Hi Steve, yes the Williams is a fine guitar. I guess I can't count, originally I posted 6 knee levers but this guitar has 5 levers. I will post the pedal and knee lever setup shortly. _________________ I survived the sixties! |

Abalone surely dresses up a steel a lot more than mother of pearl....Pretty steel Len !! Is the copedant listed correct ?......2- LKL’s ?.......Thanks, Jim |

Hi James:
Yes, the abalone inlay adds an elegant touch to the guitar. The copedent is correct. I took a page out of Jeff Newman's playbook many years ago and eliminated the LKR lever. This allows you to play the U-12 using all the pedals with no obstruction. The two LKL levers are comfortable to use with the A pedal. _________________ I survived the sixties! |

Len,
I knew Jeff didn’t use a LKR lever, but this is the first for me of the 2- LKL’s....Jim |

My Williams U-12 has been sold to a very nice young man from Brooklyn, NY. I'm sure this beautiful guitar will provide many hours of enjoyment.
Donation to SGF being sent.
