What a Looker this is.
Stella "Gambler" 12-string from Mike Hauver. The original Stella had the cards, I think I'd want it without though. I guess I'm not a traditionalist. Would love to play one. Baritone scale, ladder brace.
Any other 12 string makers of this style? I don't see 12s on John Howe's site, but Fraulini makes one as well. Dell Arte also. |

Hans Brentrup makes a 12 that is very traditional with Larsen style X bracing. I believe he also has a ladder braced version. I am on his wait list for GC-6 in Oak/Adi. Oak guitars are another great traditional option, kind like old stellas.

Congratulations on your oak/adi grand concert; great choice. What bracing will Hans be using on it?

I don't care for the cards on the top but that neck is gorgeous!
