Title: Fernandez FAG - 12 string small body with a point
Post by: sjhoffma on July 07, 2016, 07:44:51 AM

Not an Alembic, but still interesting. More than a bit overpriced, but it's the first time I've ever seen a small body with a point, so I thought it was worth sharing...

Very interesting. On the other hand, though, that's about what I paid for my 1977 Seies I twelve string.  The Fernandes woodwork is quite nice, but the electronics just don't cut it compared to legitimate Alembic electronics.  I'd consider this one at half the asking price at most.

Bill, tgo

I agree with you there. WAY too close to what I paid for my 76 and 77 series I's to even consider. Nevertheless, an interesting one for sure.
