Check out the cool ovation-looking Guild 12-string... thing Brian Setzer is playing in this mullet-era video

Nice to see the twin blonde-tolex Bassman amps are a constant...very un-Setzer-like tune, very pop...80's?
Also, I just noticed that these have 24 frets. Yowsa!
But best of all is that oval soundhole.
Between the long neck and the big butt that thing looks freaking huge!
.Not exactly a 'sound'hole..
Right, that one's finally sunk in (as I noted to GAD)And it's short scale, Al.
Heck I'm only 5'8 myself, I love short women.Same size as the 12 string in my avatar...and I'm, well, vertically challenged...obviously.
Just noticed the Gruhn page Krysh linked to doesn't show size like it does on the other A/E's, but being a "40" series I'm pretty confident it'll have the 16" lower bout of all the other Fxxce's.
With a narrow waist and shallow body it'll actually be pretty comfortable.
Your long neck comments surprises me, because that's a shortscale neck for a Guild acoustic.
Or did you get this mixed up with Acorn's jumbo junior bass post?

Do you *have* to have a mullet to play that guitar?
It's a 24-fret acoustic. I've never seen that. Perhaps long fretboard would be better than long neck.
