A MOSRITE DOUBLENECK 6/6 THAT STARTED LIFE AS A 12/6

In writing the announcement for the appearance for Brian Lonbeck and I at the NAMM
Show and at the DEKE GEEK GUITAR FESTIVAL. Look in GIG section. I forgot that this photo was on my main web-site. elainefrizzell.com. It shows me playing one of the prototype JM-65's that semie put some bell's and whistle's on. However the guitar Brian is playing is one of the 12/6 doubleneck's I sent back to Semie to rebuild. The necks on this guitar are glued in necks. I sent a hand full of 12/6 back between 1985 and 1988-9. Yes they are new necks with speed frets and all. Hope this might be of interest to some of you.

Luv to all:

Elaine,
Thanks for posting that, they (6/6) look like fun guitars to play! I take it you didn't care much for the 12/6 version?

Dear LoveyX:
You are right about that. Never cared for 12/6's. If I wanted a 12 string I used a Martin
12 with Barcus Berry pickup. I had Semie Mod every 12/6 I ever owned to a 6/6. I could
get more for a CUSTOM 6/6 at the Music Store I Managed at the time.

Do you have any pictures of it when it was a 12/6?
