Hashimoto 12 String Acoustic

About 25 years ago, I was playing quite a few solo folk club gigs and I decided that I'd introduce a little variety into my act and buy a 12 string acoustic. I ended up with this. 

I have to say that I don't use it much at all now  although it's quite nice to get it down off the wall and hear that jangle. It's actually a very easy guitar to play and I've got the action just about perfect. 

In an attempt to get an electric 12 string sound, I put a magnetic soundhole pick-up on it, but it didn't really sound like a Rick 12, so I took it off.

Even so, it's the least-played of my guitars and tends to gather dust hanging on my work room wall. Still, at least it's there if I ever need it.....
