My 12 String Yamaha FG460-AS (1972 edition?)
Since everyone else has a picture up, thought I'd join the pack... 
I play weekly at a blues club in Toronto, and some of the blues players really collect guitars - Louis (CrazyLegs) has about 12 of them, some are vintage, but I don't know much about guitars, yet...
But I'm happy with this one, although it's very heavy to tote around with me, considering I have a hard case and various mikes to carry as well.
I'll probably be looking at either acoustic/electric 6 string or perhaps just an acoustic to see if I can get some of the weight down, along with a soft case.

Looks a really nice guitar, I have an old 80's Yamaha 12 string the model number is FG260 and it's really light. It gets hardly any use these days which is a shame it has a lovely sound.

Nice 12. Maybe you know a friend of mine. Rob Quail. He plays with Jeff Healy at Jeffs blues club on occasion.

I don't know Rob, I don't think, although I DO know the blues bar you're talking about - Grossman's, right? The Celt boys just did a gig there 2 weeks ago. The Club that I play at is a private warehouse, kinda underground to fight the smoking bylaws, you BYOB and play for whomever shows up, which keeps it cool, and you should SEE the sign-in lists - it has been there for 10 years, so book after book of comments and names is a fantastic way to know who was around, and when!
I met Jeff Healey at that bar once upon a time, he thought I was gorgeous...LOL We dated for a bit, but I got tired of always having to drive us everywhere - nothing like a BF who won't drive ya home! hehehe
Grossman's has an ultra-cool venue on Tuesday nights - open blues jam, that I hope to check out soon.
Might meet up with Rob somewhere along the road, thanks for the connect-the-dots thing!
