Interesting, my other 12 string, an Epiphone doubleneck, is set up with the larger strings on the bottom; the Ric has it the other way round. May take a bit of getting used to.
More chime for my dime, as I got a pretty good deal on it, IMHO.
Very cool. I have a Dean 12 string acoustic I really like. As far as I know Ric 12 strings have always been strung the opposite of every thing else. Time to play some Birds!
