I have a '95 "Cotten Special" 612c - my "own" signature model, whoo-hoo! http://www.acousticgallery.com/photo...mit=&x=11&y=10 Only about 80 were made, for Cotten Music Center in Nashville. Unfortunately, no relation. We have two or three other Cotten 612c owners among us as well.

This is one sweet little guitar. It is perfect for my practice and relaxation at home, though it mics very easily. (No pickup as yet, though I'm leaning toward a K&K Trinity when the time comes.) It responds to fingerstyle extremely well, but I've been surprised at how well it handles moderate strumming as well. It doesn't sound like a dread, but it's voice is big and distinctive enough to be heard when playing with several of them.

While I don't mind the NT neck, actually I prefer it if it's hidden cosmetically, I've had absolutely no issues other than enjoyment with my '95 612. It may not be what everyone needs, but it sure hit the spot with me!
