In 1997 a man in our church gave me a 62 Gibson 12-string acoustic he had sitting in the closet for years. I’ve used it while playing on praise and worship teams since then. Leo Kottke? Oh yeah, he’s the man when it comes to acoustic guitar playing.
Very nice..... Good use for that gift.
Good work....stay safe !
There is also a 12 string guru named Gilowitz (?)
Ill see if I can find ya a piece of his work.
Also Adrian Legg is on my list of 12 string.
If ya have time look at Hoopiejohn (one word) on youtube. He’s a vet with great 12 string blues tunes. But he’s different....but well worth the listen.
